Hero Story

A University of Michigan (Ann Arbor) graduate who studied international business practices. She then went on to Wayne State University of pursue her Master's Degree in Elementary Education with a math major. She currently owns an organic cafe and has been operating an organic body care company for almost 10 years. She was also a stay-at-home mom who was always looking for teaching opportunities for her daughter.
The Farm-A.C. started out of the lack of available fresh, organic produce. Kathy Cox owns an organic cafe and frequently finds herself lacking quality organic produce and found it difficult to find local organic growers able to accomodate her cafe's needs. She thought of purchasing a small plot of land and growing her own produce for the cafe.... Then God had a bigger vision.... She could use this as an opportunity to help those who have a difficult time finding a place to fit in, a place where they can be themselves and be loved. The place would be a hub for true frienship and would allow people to use their strenghts for the betterment of the community- a place where everyone can feel a sense of purpose.
Her vision kept growing while yet being overall a simple mission: to have a positive impact on the community, one life at a time.
Kathy shared with vision with several others and a team of 5 was formed. Kathy did all of the paperwork and the Farm-A.C. is now officially a recognized 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
