Dunn's Overtown Farms is a vibrant urban community farm located in the heart of Overtown, committed to fostering community health, sustainability, and empowerment. Our farm spans the entire corner of 3rd ave & 9th street, within the Miami metro area and serves as a green oasis amidst the urban landscape, offering fresh, locally grown produce to residents, shelters and afterschool programs. We also focus heavily on sustainable farming practices, growing a variety of vegetables that thrive in our local climate.

At Overtown Farms, we do more than just grow food; we nurture community connections. We provide educational programs on gardening, nutrition, and healthy living, particularly focusing on socioeconomically disadvantaged families and BIPOC communities. Through workshops, field trips, and hands-on gardening experiences, we empower individuals with the knowledge and tools to grow their own food and make healthier lifestyle choices.

Our farm is a resource hub, offering access to nutritious food, educational opportunities, and a space for the community to come together. By servicing local families, mothers, and youth, we aim to address food insecurity, improve health outcomes, and build a stronger, more self-sufficient community.
