Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

EarthDance advances food justice by training organic farmers and gardeners of all ages, providing connection to healthy food and the land, and cultivating vibrant community.

  • Adult Education: In 2021, EarthDance piloted a redesign of its adult education programs to provide a quick-start 5-week program "Spring Training for Gardeners" for individuals interested in learning backyard and community gardening (101 participants in 2022), and a paid summer apprenticeship option for individuals pursuing a career in agriculture (8 participants in 2022). EarthDance fosters an active volunteer corps, with over 200 participants contributing over 1500 hours of service on the farm in 2022.

    Expenses $81,747 · Revenue $10,577

  • Farm to School: EarthDance's partnership with the Ferguson-Florissant School District will connect the district's 10,000+ students, families, and staff to farm-to-school programming for ages K-12. This initiative included garden-based professional development for district teachers, an agri-culinary internships program providing high school students with culinary and farming skills, service learning opportunities for young people on the farm, and support for school district gardens by EarthDance's Farm to School educator. In 2023, EarthDance anticipates serving 700+ students and district staff, and broadening the reach of the program in coming years.

    Expenses $44,282 · Revenue $62,831

  • Participation in EarthDance's Pay What You Can Farm Stand. Community members from the greater St. Louis area utilized the Pay What You Can Farm Stand 525 times, up 31% over 2021. $6,729 worth of organic produce was distributed at the Farm Stand. 59% of our customers utilized the sliding scale model and either received discounts (paid less) as needed or donated extra to pay it forward. 63% were residents of North St. Louis County, and one in three shoppers live in Ferguson.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
