Foundation Community of Hope has set up a Social Enterprise called Farm of Life in Więckowice, Krakow, Poland. In this Social Enterprise adult autistic people are employed. This enterprise is aimed at picking fruits and vegetables and afterwards selling those products gathered on their ecological farm as well as selling their own preserves. Both packages and labels are going to be produced for mentioned products. Employers on Farm of Life are working on Ecological farm as well as in workshops: household (at the same time food processing plant) and production of packages.
This unique project is very valuable to the society as it allow autistic people to become both part of the society and labour market. It has got also an ecological value.
