Restorative Farms started in 2017 with a simple but radical idea: take vacant, underutilized land in South Dallas and turn it into something that feeds people and creates real jobs. Their Future Urban Farmers program is a paid 3-year vocational training initiative that has logged over 36,500 hours of hands-on training since 2020 — all while paying participants a living wage. At Lawnview Station, a DART transit hub, they're building a living classroom and food hub managed by program graduates, including formerly incarcerated individuals gaining real agricultural careers. Dallas grown. Community sown.
