PCF Calls for Community Support to Acquire Farm Truck
Update! UPPCO generously donated a Farm Truck to PCF !
2024 is the first growing season on the 3.75 acre Partridge Creek Community Farm located in downtown Ishpeming. Partridge Creek Farm (PCF) aims to cultivate 9,000 lbs of produce in 2024 for distribution to the Ishpeming Community and the Ishpeming School District's cafeteria. To achieve this goal, PCF needs a farm truck.

What we’re looking for:
Well-maintained farm truck for seasonal use during the growing period
Primary purpose will be transporting tools and produce across seven PCF sites
Hauling capacity is not a priority
Moderate to high mileage is acceptable
Preference is for a smaller-sized truck rather than a larger one
PCF is reaching out to our community for assistance. There are several ways to offer assistance:
