Gaining Ground, Inc.

Gaining Ground is a 3 acre non-profit, no-till, organic farm in Concord, MA that grows produce for 15 hunger relief organizations with the help of community volunteers. We donate 100% of the food we grow. In the 2022 growing season we grew over 115,000 pounds of produce, supplying more than 1,200 food-insecure households each week in the Greater Boston region. We welcomed over 3,100 volunteers of all ages and abilities to the farm this past season.

Gaining Ground uses farming practices centered around ecosystem health. We strive to farm alongside nature and to encourage biological diversity below and above the soil. The farm has been recognized for bio-intensive farming practices and has been part of no-till studies led by NOFA, MDAR and USDA/NRCS, testing the soil health and nutrients of our produce. 

Our grassroots organization thrives on hard-working, committed, friendly individuals who support our mission with enthusiasm and a sense of humor and who are eager to work alongside volunteers in support of our hunger-relief mission.

Gaining Ground is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment of belonging for all employees. We welcome all applicants regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, gender identity, sexual orientation, or marital status.
