Three Meadows:  Social Enterprise

Three Meadows Farm (A social enterprise with Somerset Hills Learning Institute)

Operated by Somerset Hills Learning Institute, Three Meadows Farm is a mission-driven social enterprise where education, career development, and sustainability come together. As part of the Institute’s work supporting children, teens, and adults with autism, the farm provides meaningful opportunities for hands-on learning, skill development, and employment pathways.

Serving as both an educational training environment and a workplace, Three Meadows Farm helps address the significant employment barriers faced by adults with autism by creating real-world job experiences in a supportive setting.

Inside the farm’s hydroponic greenhouses, participants gain practical experience in every stage of the growing process—from planting and cultivating to harvesting and packaging the farm’s signature products, including Paradise Salad and fresh microgreens. Hydroponic farming uses nutrient-rich water instead of soil, allowing for environmentally responsible, pesticide-free growing in a carefully managed space that produces fresh, local produce year-round.
