Just like constellations in the sky, our communities are made of individual stars, each with their own light, power, dreams, challenges, and gifts. At Constellation Farms, our focus of service is to those individuals who have special gifts and needs. We call them “VIP Stars.” As we serve the most vulnerable amongst us, we really serve the deepest part of ourselves.

We believe there are three core components to having meaningful work:
1. The degree to which people find their work to have significance and purpose.
2. The contribution work makes to finding broader meaning in life.
3. The desire and means for one’s work to make a positive contribution to the greater good.
Money does not have to change hands to have meaningful work.

Since it will take a while to raise the necessary funds and construct needed buildings on the farm, we are starting our program in a restored old house built in 1880. Located at 36041 Highway 190 in Springville, it is ½ mile from the farm. “The Clubhouse” is the headquarters for the organization, a meeting place for volunteers, and where our workshops and Star Days happen!

No. Nor do we have any religious affiliation. That said, many of us at Constellation Farms feel we are driven by a higher purpose and led by Love based faiths.

Although our focus is on serving adult individuals, we do so by serving the community at large. Children, especially siblings, are welcome to attend our family friendly events.

We are proud to be a social recreation vendor with the Central Valley Regional Center. We are highly committed to our mission and the quality of service that we provide. Any affiliation we have with outside organizations or funding sources will always be aligned with our mission.

We are funded by donations from those who believe in our mission. Consider supporting our cause. (donation button at the top of this page) In time, we hope to be sustainable through sales of farm produce, artwork, workshops, and other industries activities.

We are an all-volunteer organization and do not have any paid staff.
