The 2026 Highmark Walk for a Healthy Community comes to the Lehigh Valley on Saturday, June 13, drawing team and individual participants for a day of fun, fitness and fundraising for vital health and human service organizations throughout our community. This year, the event aims to raise $140,000 in support of 16 different nonprofits — including Monocacy Farm Project — that make an impact every day for those in need in the Lehigh Valley.

The Monocacy Farm Project team is registering participants to walk with us and raise $10,000 in support of our mission to feed the hungry, care for the earth, and grow health community. We welcome you to become part of our team to walk in your choice of the 5K Walk or One-Mile Walk. Can’t join us that day? No problem. You can still donate in support of MFP by visiting our official Highmark Walk page here.

Before you know it, it will be time to embrace spring, get outside and jumpstart the growing season! To help you do just that, our sixth annual Spring on the Farm event is set for 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, May 9.

The day will include a sale of a wide variety of plants direct from our greenhouse (sure to sell out), local food and craft vendors, farm tours, and exhibitors.

All proceeds from this and all the day’s events benefit Monocacy Farm Project. Parking and admission are free. As the day approaches, keep an eye on our event Facebook page for late-breaking updates, vendor spotlights, plant availability and more!
