Grow2Heal
Homestead Hospital’s Grow2Heal garden has been cultivating fresh fruits and vegetables for patients, visitors, employees and local organizations in need since 2014.
Hospital leadership dedicated vacant land adjacent to the hospital to develop an organic – and sustainable – garden as a way to offer the community fresh, nutritious foods with a far-reaching impact.
The Grow2Heal community garden at Homestead Hospital is also a creative solution to ongoing challenges with chronic disease management and preventive healthcare and is used to educate the community through school fieldtrips, health fairs, cooking demonstrations, wellness workshops and support groups.
The fruits of our labor provide people with a bounty of health benefits, including boosting the immune system and managing chronic health issues. We know that good nutrition is important to overall wellness. We are committed to delivering good health, from the ground up.

Resources for Hospital Data
Florida's Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) makes available data on hospital prices and performance on their Internet website at FloridaHealthFinder.gov and Pricing.FloridaHealthFinder.gov. The data on hospital prices and performance are based on a compilation of charges for the average patient. A patient's bill may vary from the average shown, depending upon the severity of illness and individual care needs. The service bundle information is a non-personalized estimate of costs that may be incurred by the patient for anticipated services and that actual costs will be based on services actually provided to the patient.
