Our Story
THRIVE Network aims to foster community self-reliance by creating a system of Urban farms, SNAP-EBT enabled food access channels, and entrepreneurship and advocacy training programs to address nutritional needs and expand economic opportunity in five targeted low-income neighborhoods in Tallahassee, Florida.
Our Training Programs
THRIVE empowers residents to grow food, lead change, and strengthen their communities. Participants gain skills in urban farming, nutrition, and leadership to build healthier, more self-reliant neighborhoods across Tallahassee.
This training was very apropos. Timely and well executed. The curriculum was on point. Experiential learning was finely done. Classmates were awesome, like family, and our instructor Erica is amazing. Communication with our instructor both in, out, and even after this class was easy. We were very lucky.
Ms. Rose was fantastic! Her kindness and positive attitude really took the worries away. She didn't pressure us but did give us that extra push when needed. Even when only a few showed up to class, she always taught class with full enthusiasm and that's important to the people that do show up. She knows her stuff, very very knowledgeable.
Really enjoyed this class and all my garden buddies; [I] would take and suggest this class over and over. I hope that I’m able to eventually lease or own land to put everything I’ve learned to work but until then I’ll continue utilizing my backyard space and the gardens we’ve helped build to feed my community and teach more people the importance of growing and shopping local.
