New Leaf Agriculture trains and employs refugee farmers from traditional farming cultures in dignified work that reconnects them to farming in their new communities. Situated in Elgin, Texas, New Leaf Agriculture is part of a large tract of land within the Wilbarger Creek Conservation Alliance, located 30 minutes Northeast of downtown Austin, Texas, also known as the live music capital.

During the apprentice's time onsite, they will assist in harvest and packing activities for delivering CSA shares to refugee families and the wider Austin community. Additionally, apprentices will help prepare for the weekly Sunday farmers market. They will interact with and learn from refugee community farmers who cultivate culturally desirable vegetables on their own production-scale community garden plots. Other tasks include setting up irrigation, bed preparation for planting, greenhouse work, caring for chickens, cleaning and packaging eggs, moving portable fencing for chickens, and operating our walk-behind BCS tractor.
