The mission of ENFB is to alleviate hunger in USDA Food Desert districts across America by soliciting, collecting, hydroponically growing, and packaging food for distribution through a network of agencies and programs, as well as provide opportunities for partial self-sufficiency and financial sustainability provided by a unique collaboration of a Food Bank, a Farmers Market and a Hydroponic Facility all under one roof, supporting each other, managed by a new farm family, decreasing the dependency on federal grant and foundation funding, revising the American Food Bank Business Model while creating a new American Farm Business Model. ENFB will develop the 4-H National Hydroponic Science Program to inspire Youth to look at agriculture as a profession while giving back to their community.
