Back 5 Fields

Back 5 Fields 10 acre farm in North Little Rock, AR. Growing food & opportunities for our neighbors experiencing chronic unsheltered homelessness.

Creating unconventional work opportunities for people in unconventional sleeping situations. Back 5 Fields is an urban farm established to benefit Central Arkansas's homeless and/or impoverished neighbors. In addition to providing fresh produce to those in need, Back 5 Fields will provide homeless individuals with the opportunity to earn a day's wages by participating in the business of the farm.

It is our desire that The Field will become a social gathering place for people from all walks of life who are committed to serving others.

This Saturday 5/9 we’ll be set up at Smoke Shack Bar-B-Q in Maumelle in place of Ninja Chef at Three Sisters Farm Gourmet Stand with a plant sale take over!! This is just across the interstate from our new building (still undergoing renovations) on the Morgan side. We’ll have Pawpaw saplings, tomato/cucumber/peppers/basil/more plant starts. So if you haven’t planted your garden or raised beds yet, just come see us at Smoke Shack Saturday. All these plants are started from seed in our greenhouse using Man of The Red Earth products from day one, so they can live in their cups as long as you need to get your spot ready and get them set out!

Big Beef
Cherokee Purple
New Girl
Early Girl
Supersweet 100 (maybe)

Jalapenos
Bells

Basil in both green AND purple!!

Watermelon and cantaloupe!

Probably some more stuff. Come by and load up! You get plants *and* you help us give work opportunities to folks served by The Van!

We sure do appreciate Man of the Red Earth for making this connection and everyone at Three Sisters for allowing us to roll into their spot Saturday from 8a-1p!
