Patti Johnson Farm
"The City's agritourism center, named after late Councilwoman Patti Johnson, is still very much at the start of its journey.
Our Focus
The farm's primary focus is on educating school-aged children about where our food comes from and what's involved with basic operations of a farm. Our garden areas are in their infancy, and we hope that in a few years, a lush mix of colorful and fruitful plants, butterflies, and birds will be making the farm their home alongside the small number of traditional farm animals on site.
Programming
Programming on the farm will include:
Introductory gardening classes
Introductory workshops on raising backyard poultry
Starting a compost or worm bin
Preserving the bounty after a big harvest
As we grow, we anticipate a peppering of animal shows, seasonal celebrations and just-for-fun events. Those who visit will notice that we'll always be a work in progress - some structures may come and go, some areas of the grounds may be dug up, some plants may move around. And yes, even the animals may change occasionally as nature runs its course. We hope that the farm will be an asset to our students as well as to the larger community as a place to discover, learn, and grow.

What we do
We are known for helping the City of Pinellas Park. We are on the case whether it be cleaning up parks (sometimes even with kayaks!), maintaining various gardens, food drives, assisting at fun city events like City BBQ and Country in the Park, or helping local elementary schools. We also hold fundraisers to raise money for our organization, with some of that money going to Holiday gifts for teens in need. There are plenty of opportunities to be involved year-round and we love meeting new friends.
Mission Statement
We strive to improve and beautify our community by supporting organizations, hosting projects, and creating family fun activities and opportunities for all to enjoy. We want to inspire lifelong memories within the community through our TeenWorkX Volunteer group. Our plea is to motivate the youth around us through our hard work and commitment to fight for a better tomorrow.
