Farm 12 is a beacon of purposeful living in Puyallup’s heart. At the core of Farm 12’s mission is the belief that a life grounded in purpose not only flourishes but also enriches the surrounding community. Initiatives ranging from an outdoor preschool aimed at early learning to the construction of a state-of-the-art indoor facility for children embody the commitment to nurturing the next generation.
Beyond education, Farm 12 extends its mission through a robust social enterprise model that includes hosting weddings and events and operating a restaurant and coffee shop, each activity woven with the thread of supporting local families and children.
The Grove, Farm 12’s outdoor preschool, marks the beginning of a journey of exploration and learning, catering to children aged 2.5 to 5 years. This venture into early education is just the tip of the iceberg, as plans to expand with an indoor facility promise a bright future for over 100 kids, furthering the mission of the nonprofit organization Step By Step.
This initiative is a testament to Farm 12’s dedication to creating a nurturing environment for children, grounded in the belief that the seeds of purpose planted in them today will grow into the meaningful contributions of tomorrow. Amidst these educational endeavors, Farm 12 does not lose sight of its role as a social enterprise, recognizing that every meal served and every event hosted not only delights clients but also supports a noble cause.
The first Annual Yulefest at Farm 12 ushers in the holiday spirit with local crafts, festive music, and an array of food trucks, establishing a new tradition that promises joy and unity for the community. This family-friendly event not only serves as a celebration of the season but also highlights Farm 12’s dedication to fostering community spirit and engagement.
This event, along with others throughout the year, showcases Farm 12’s commitment to not just being a place of business but a community hub that brings people together for memorable experiences. Through social media platforms like Instagram, Farm 12 continues to engage with the local community, inviting residents to be part of the vibrant life at the farm.
Farm 12’s role in supporting moms and babies through its social enterprise efforts underlines a deep commitment to societal well-being. From a simple sandwich to a grand wedding, each service offered at Farm 12 backs a multifaceted mission: supporting local families through financial contributions and job training programs.
This unique blend of purposeful living, social entrepreneurship, and community engagement makes Farm 12 not just a venue but a vessel for positive change. As Farm 12 continues to grow its offerings, from the educational advancements of the Grove to the joyous celebrations of Yulefest and beyond, it stands as a pillar of community support and a model of how businesses can thrive with purpose.
