Engagement - Empowerment - Entrepreneurship

Growing High Point hosts events that bring our mission to life—advancing food justice, empowering neighborhoods, and cultivating connections across our city. Each event we organize is an opportunity to engage with the community, share knowledge, and build a healthier, more equitable High Point. Throughout the year, we offer a range of events that reflect our values and programs, from volunteer opportunities on our urban farms to educational workshops, seasonal celebrations, and collaborative community meals.

​

Signature events include:

The Let’s Grow Gala – Our annual celebration and fundraiser that honors the impact of our work and the people who make it possible. This elegant evening features locally sourced food, inspiring stories, and opportunities to invest in our shared vision for High Point.

The Longest Table – A large-scale community dinner designed to foster dialogue and connection across differences. Guests from all backgrounds come together at one continuous table to share a meal and meaningful conversation.

These events, and many others throughout the year, serve as powerful platforms to engage, educate, and inspire action. Whether you're interested in volunteering, learning about urban agriculture, or simply supporting community transformation, Growing High Point events offer something for everyone.

Join us to grow food, grow leaders, and grow community—together.
