Growing Dreams with Ice Cream!

Join us for a sweet treat on Wednesday August 19th from 4-7PM at Jeni’s Ice Cream near the Riverwalk in Naperville. Present a paper or digital flyer via the link below so that 25% of your purchase will be donated back to We Grow Dreams! This is another in our small fundraiser series in support of our Capital Campaign. We have curated the Growing Dreams Signature Bowl with the classic Jeni’s Ice Cream flavors: Darkest Chocolate, Banana Cream Pudding, and Buttercream Birthday Cake which we believe do a good job showcasing the many colors associated with We Grow Dreams! We hope to see you there to get a tasty treat while helping to support We Grow Dream’s Capital Campaign celebrating 20 years providing job training and employment for adults with disabilities.

Fall Color is COMING

GREAT WORK to our team getting all the hard jobs done between the seasons! We are so eager to bring you beautiful color for the Fall season when the time is right! The beginning of our offerings have started to speckle our retail tables, we’ll have our mums and larger items coming out closer to the end of August. We look forward to providing you with 50 beautifully unique mum varieties along with ornamental cabbage, kale, edible plants and other frost hardy annuals as the days shorten and nights begin to get chillier.

Keep the Momentum Going: We Grow Dreams Capital Campaign

We’ve received an amazing initial response from our Capital Campaign launch. Thank you so much to all of our first round contributors! There is still a BIG gap between where we are and where our goal is, but with your support through donations, sharing with friends and family, and purchasing plants here at the greenhouse we can continue to make this dream possible for our many team members and their family, and hopefully many more as the years go on! Any donation big or small can help us to reach our goal – you can even choose monthly donations to show just how little donations can make a big different over time! Please see our GoFundMe Page or reach out to us at the greenhouse to make a donation or discuss a business that may be interested in contributing to our Capital Campaign and support our mission.

A Blast From The Past!

Please enjoy this video from years ago when We Grow Dreams was just beginning. Some things have changed, but the dream remains the same! We are still growing and providing real work opportunities for our team members – some in this video are team members who are still working here today! We are so glad to provide a safe inclusive space for so many to come in and experience teamwork, friendship, and a good day’s work here regularly without the expectation to work faster or outside of their comfort zone. Thank you to our Team Member Families for their years of trust and support!
