Where hope and healing take root
Simple Promise Farms is a nonprofit in Elgin, Texas supporting addiction recovery through meaningful work, community, and purpose. Through farming and community partnerships, we help individuals restore dignity, build life skills, and rediscover purpose.
How we help
Cultivating growth from the ground up
Simple Promise Farms in Elgin, Texas is more than a working farm. It is a place where healing gets its hands dirty. Recovery happens in community through shared work, responsibility, and purpose, which is why we partner with recovery programs and sober living homes across Central Texas to support men and women in early recovery as they rebuild their lives.
We call our model regenerative recovery. Just as soil can be restored, so can a life shaped by addiction. At the farm, individuals take on real daily work, grow food, and contribute to something larger than themselves. In that process, dignity returns, purpose is rebuilt, and lasting transformation is realized.
What we sell
Products of our promise
Our produce and farm-made goods are grown with care, shaped by meaningful work, and rooted in service. Each product reflects a commitment to the land, the community, and creating opportunities for people rebuilding their lives through recovery.

Texas Country Reporter: Healing in the Garden
Being featured on Texas Country Reporter was a meaningful milestone for Simple Promise Farms and Ranch House Recovery. As one of the nation's longest-running syndicated programs, it offered a powerful platform to share our mission of recovery through meaningful work, community, and connection.
The feature highlighted how daily work on the farm supports restoration, helping men and women in recovery rebuild responsibility, trust, and purpose. More than growing food, the farm is a place where people begin to grow again.
