Our mission is to reduce the recidivism rate of those individuals that are on parole or probation.

Gratitude means a little more when you have been given a second chance.

This Thanksgiving season, we are grateful for everyone who chose to keep going after a hard chapter, and for the community members who made room for them to do so.

Second chances change lives. They also change families, workplaces, and neighborhoods!

Nothing worthwhile grows overnight. A career, a stable home, and a restored family all take time, the right conditions, and people willing to show up season after season.

That is the heart of Farming2Freedom and the Harvesting Second Chances effort: cultivating skills, mentorship, and opportunity so lives can take root and thrive.

If you work with someone on probation or parole, or you are ready for a fresh start yourself, the Transformation Academy is open. Reach out to Jim Sharrock at [email protected] or visit farming2freedom.org.

Every employer wants people who show up, take responsibility, and want to grow.

Transformation Academy participants spend their time building exactly those habits. Accountability, communication, and life skills are practiced week after week alongside mentors who invest in their success.

Hiring someone who has done that work brings a motivated team member into your business and gives your community a stronger future at the same time.

64.7% of people released from Pennsylvania prisons are rearrested within three years. Recidivism costs the state an estimated $3.1 billion a year.

Behind those numbers are individuals deciding every day whether to keep pushing toward something better. Steady employment, mentorship, and a community that shows up give them a reason to keep going.

Harvesting Second Chances is about building that path, one person and one job at a time.

Steady work starts with steady skills.

Through the Farming2Freedom Transformation Academy, participants build what employers look for: life skills, accountability, communication, and job readiness, with mentors who stay in their corner along the way.

That preparation changes what a first interview, a first paycheck, and a first year on the job can look like.

Ready to take that step, or know someone who is? Reach out to Jim Sharrock at [email protected] or visit farming2freedom.org.

A steady job changes more than a paycheck.

It keeps families together. It gives people a reason to stay on track. And it reduces the chances someone ends up back in the system, which means safer, stronger communities for everyone.

This is more than a justice issue. It's an economic one too.

Today, we honor work and the dignity it brings.

But for justice-impacted individuals, meaningful employment is still often out of reach, not because of ability, but because of a record that follows them into every interview.

Farming2Freedom stands with those who are rebuilding their lives, developing new skills, and seeking a genuine second chance. Because everyone deserves the opportunity to contribute, grow, and thrive in their community.

Work is more than a paycheck. It's a pathway to dignity.

64.7% of people released from Pennsylvania prisons are rearrested within three years.

Recidivism costs the state an estimated $3.1 billion annually, a burden carried by taxpayers and communities alike.

We can't afford to keep doing this the same way. Investing in reentry support and sustainable employment isn't just the right thing to do. It's also the smart thing to do.

We believe second chances are built, not given, through mentorship, accountability, meaningful work, and a community willing to walk alongside someone as they rebuild.

That belief shapes everything we do, from the Transformation Academy to the everyday conversations that quietly change the course of someone's life.

If you know someone who could benefit from that kind of support, we would love to connect.

If your work brings you alongside people navigating reentry, we want to connect with you.

Farming2Freedom is actively welcoming participants into our current Transformation Academy cohort, and we are asking community partners, agencies, churches, and advocates to help us reach them.

If you work with individuals who are on probation or parole, returning to the community, or simply searching for structure and a fresh start, please share this opportunity.

Because growth doesn't happen alone. When community shows up, lives change.
