Our new Urban Farm at Aldersgate seeks assistance in numerous supporting roles to grow farm-fresh foods for our local neighbors and residents.

This mentoring program pairs school-age students with elder adults. Through the bonds they create, adults build youngsters’ self-esteem, teach life skills and goal setting, and simply provide someone willing to listen.

This acclaimed stage production, written and acted by Aldersgate residents, weaves together pivotal life moments to create a dramatic tapestry, unlike anything you’ve ever seen.
