Growing Home is a nonprofit organic farm business on Chicago’s South Side that doubles as a 14-week job skills development program. Twice a year, 20 interns from Englewood and neighboring communities come to learn farming and take job-training classes. Interns gain essential skills to get hired and keep a job.
