Tapestry Farms generously invests in the lives of refugees who resettle in the Quad Cities.
Access: We persistently work to eliminate barriers refugees experience to housing, education, medical and mental health care, work, food, transportation, community, and citizenship.
Urban farm: We reclaim underutilized land in Quad City neighborhoods experiencing food insecurity, growing culturally responsive food so that all in our community are abundantly fed.
The future: Our greatest hope is that building trusted connections will create a Quad City-wide welcoming infrastructure - a vibrant and thriving community for every single person, including refugees.
