Empowering Youth To Reach Their Full Potential
On Solid Ground
New City Neighbors is launching a new and exciting capital campaign called, On Solid Ground. We are securing local greenspace to raise up new farmers as champions for equity in our local food system, all while we continue to provide healthy produce for our neighbors. Imagine the possibilities with us!
A Dinner to Remember
New City Café will be having an exclusive 5 course dinner this December. The menu will feature produce from New City Farm and paired wine will be included with every course. Check out what is in store for this dinner to remember. Spots are limited so don’t miss out!
New City Café
Our café serves delicious wood fired pizzas, soups, salads, baked goods and more while allowing us to train our youth in farm-to-table goodness. Catering opportunities are also available.
Join us at Thursdays from 4-7 PM at our Farmhouse for fresh soup, salads, pizza, and more!
New City Farm
New City Farm grows delicious produce, but its purpose is more than just feeding people. For almost a decade, New City Neighbors has been working hard in the Northeast side of Grand Rapids to positively impact our community. The farm’s main objective is to provide job and life skills to high school youth in our neighborhood.
Get Involved
New City Neighbors has a variety of volunteer and employment opportunities. Are you a high-schooler looking for your first job, or a college student looking for an internship? Do you want to volunteer with handing out fresh veggies or enjoy digging in the dirt? Or maybe your calling is to work with youth and agriculture. We’re ready for you. Click the button below.
Invest In Youth
My favorite part at the cafe is when we’re able to have fun and act like a family in the kitchen. It easily becomes a happy place knowing that you’ll never have a bad time with anyone there because it’s always welcoming.
I love baking and cooking, so working in the cafe this year has taught me a lot about making food, and It’s given me experience with things I’ve never done before (which is great on a resume).
