Montclair Community Farms

MCF is proud to partner with Montclair Township to expand community composting through the Montclair Compost Initiative! ♻️✨

Together, we’ve already diverted over 10 tons of kitchen scraps from landfills, turning them into nutrient-rich compost that helps us grow healthy, organic produce right here in Montclair.

Thanks to new grant support, we’re upgrading to a rocket composter, which will streamline our process, reduce manual labor, and dramatically increase how much we can compost. More food scraps saved, more living soil created, and a cleaner, greener community for everyone.

This initiative also makes composting accessible across town with community drop-off sites and multilingual outreach, ensuring ALL residents can take part.

🌿 Support our work and help us build a more sustainable Montclair.

All contributions made by December 31st, 2025 will be generously matched by the Partners for Health foundation!

Even after losing access to our Miller Street site after 13 incredible years, we didn’t stop growing.

This season, we harvested 1,200 pounds of produce from our Orange Road site and a portion of that was donated or sold through our Farm Stand to support our amazing community.

🚜 Our Farm Stand traveled to 55 markets, serving 716 people and proudly supporting 200 SNAP and FMNP clients, helping promote food security and healthier lifestyles.

🌱 In the greenhouse, we continued to strengthen our partnership with Van Vleck House & Gardens. Together with seniors, interns, and volunteers, we nurtured over 9,500 seedlings that filled both our fields and our Annual Plant Sale.

🌿 And through hands-on education with our 27 interns, we helped more than 1,700 people of all ages build a deeper connection with nature and understand the importance of environmental stewardship.

At MCF, we’re committed to fighting food insecurity and ensuring everyone has access to fresh, healthy food, no matter what challenges come our way.
This is why your support matters.

✨ Donate today and help us keep growing for our community.
