L'Arche Farm

L'Arche Farm Growing people, growing plants in Tacoma, WA. We are currently in our 35th year growing plant products and have been doing paper and floral crafts for 25 years.

It is the mission of L’Arche Tahoma Hope Farm & Gardens to offer a safe and welcoming environment that provides meaningful farm and garden work to persons with differing abilities. Working in an integrated setting with people of a variety of abilities and gifts each farm worker, where core member, assistant or volunteer is affirmed in their dignity, self worth and connection to all of life. To put

it more simply the goal of the Farm is “Growing People Growing Plants”

Our work force consists of people of all abilities working together to bring you quality plants and crafts. We are a community supported work program which means part of our funding comes from support from the greater community. We are fortunate to receive grant and other moneys from agencies like United Way, The Greater Tacoma Community Foundation, The Medina Foundation, Pierce County as well as individual donors and supporters. Our program sits on six acres where in addition to providing quality annuals, perennials, herbs and hanging baskets, we offer organic vegetables and fresh cut and dried floral bouquets. During the year we also recycle paper and along with our yearly harvest of dried flowers and seeds we create our own “L’Arche Paper Crafts”, which include handmade journals, ornaments, all occasion cards, Christmas cards, picture frames and more.

Les and Doug helped out this week! The giant tree next to Farmhouse was damaging the roof so we made the decision to remove it.

It wasn’t easy but we got it done!

Check out the story and video on Rick Samyn, our beekeeper! We are so delighted that he and the bees are with us!

Rick Samyn, St. Leo Church’s pastoral assistant for social justice, checks hive health at L’Arche Tahoma Hope Farms in Tacoma. A beekeeper for about 25 years, Samyn says the goal goes beyond honey — learning how communities can work collectively and care for the planet.
