Pop-Up #2: Mental Hygiene

Sign up to reserve your seat today—space is limited!

Did you know September is Su***de Prevention Month?

Whether you are navigating personal struggles, supporting a loved one, or carrying the heavy weight of caretaking, your mental health matters. Caring for others starts with caring for yourself, and taking time for self-care can save lives.

Join Dr. Ivette Ruiz for an interactive, engaging session designed to be a safe, welcoming, and positive space for everyone. Dr. Ruiz will open with an overview of mental hygiene—drawing from years of clinical, non-clinical, and agrotherapy experience—followed by an open environment where you can ask questions, gain resources, and share what works for you. This session isn't just a lecture; it's a supportive community space to connect, learn, and grow together.

Event Details:

Date: Saturday, September 12th

Time: 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM EST

Location: Remote (Online)

How to Register:
Email us at [email protected] with the subject line Mental Hygiene to register. Further details will be provided after registration.

Suggested donation: $20 for those who can afford to give, directly supporting our Healing by Growing™ Farms mission and cause of providing free agri-therapy and animal-assisted therapy services to vulnerable populations in need.

How does getting your hands in the soil actually support brain recovery? 🧠✨

Studies show that soil contains Mycobacterium vaccae, a natural bacterium that triggers the release of serotonin in the brain—improving mood and reducing stress. Combined with sensory-grounding tasks like planting and harvesting, farm work helps rebuild focus, motor skills, and emotional resilience for trauma survivors.

Celebrating Harvest Abundance & Community Impact in East Haven! 🌾✨

Despite this season’s extreme weather fluctuations, our fields have flourished!

Thanks to a fruitful harvest, we are honored to continue our core mission—providing Farm 2 Home (F2H) no-cost fresh produce, fruit, medicinal herbs, flowers, and egg donations (rotationally as supplies allow) to homebound individuals, people with disabilities, families facing hardship, and brain injury survivors. 🧺🌿🥚❤️

Because of this wonderful surplus, we launched our brand-new Micro-CSA Pilot Program this week!

We want to send a heartfelt THANK YOU to our founding members who came out for their first bi-weekly pickup! Everything went so smoothly, and we are deeply grateful for your willingness to celebrate with us the abundance of harvest that God has provided. Your support directly helps us sustain our farm operations and community outreach following recent funding shifts. 🥬🍅🌸

Check out the photos for a look at the amazing fresh harvest we were blessed to pick this week! Every week brings something new (with plenty more ahead, including our upcoming corn harvest!). 🌽✨

Interested in joining our Micro-CSA? 🧺✨

If you are local to the New Haven area and would like to receive fresh, locally grown goods while supporting a meaningful community mission, we’d love to welcome you! Baskets are available bi-weekly for Monday evening pickups while seasonal supplies last:

• The Farmers Choice Sprouts Basket (5 items): $25 per pickup (veggies, fruit, medicinal herbs, & flowers based on weekly harvest!)

• The Farmers Choice Abundance Basket (10 items): $45 per pickup

📧 How to Reserve: Email us at [email protected] to join our next pickup!

With love, gratitude, and many blessings,

Healing by Growing™ Farms 🌱✨
