It Takes A Village Community Farm

2500 223rd Street
Sauk Village, IL 60411

It Takes A VIllage (ITAV) Community Farm is a 3 acre farm led in partnership with Grace United Church of Christ. The farm is located in Sauk VIllage, IL, a south suburb of Chicago.

The vision for a community green space in Sauk Village began in 2019, shortly after the last grocery store closed down. After several years of community conversations and planning, construction of the farm began in the Fall of 2021. 

Once fully developed, the farm will produce over 50,000 pounds of fresh, organic, culturally affirming food for Sauk Village and neighboring communities on an annual basis. The farm is also designed to offer a variety of educational programs and community events.

"It's such a warm and welcoming experience. Everybody can come and volunteer. It's a family atmosphere. That's what hits home. You want to be there because you're welcome. I feel like the produce is huge, it's something the community needs, but the community also needs those welcome places, those safe places."
