Bike Farm.org | A non-profit learning space run by volunteers who believe that bicycles are an idea (and fun!) mod of transportation.
Mission Statement
Excerpted from the website:
- The Bicycle Farm is a non-profit learning space run by volunteers who believe that bicycles are an ideal (and fun!) mode of transportation. Our mission is to promote the bicycle as a fun, safe, and accessible form of transportation, to foster healthy urban communities, and to provide a welcoming space to learn about building maintaining, and riding bicycles.

All rates are negotiable and no one will be denied reasonable service for lack of funds. Volunteer exchange can also be arranged for membership.
Membership entitles you to full use of shop space and a professional set of tools with the assistance of a mechanic DURING OPEN HOURS.
Drop-in rate: $5.00 per hour (no membership required)
Month Membership: $20.00
Year Membership: $50.00

Each core mechanic will have priveledges based on time and commitment. The non-profit will be a non-hierarchical consensus based project with weekly meetings, discussing the state of the Bike Farm and needed improvements.
The space will be purely run on funds and donations. We hope to get a few larger grants to help pay rent for the space in the beginning until its able to sustain itself on selling used parts. The Shop will be open at first 3 days a week in the evening hours and then extend to 4.
