About Us
Packet Line Urban Farm is a community-centered microfarm and learning hub located in downtown Clearwater on the campus of the Clearwater Historical Society. Inspired by the packet boats that once connected Florida's Gulf Coast communities through the movement of food, goods, and people, Packet Line carries that spirit of connection forward by bringing together food, education, and community. Rooted in generations of local heritage and a shared commitment to stewardship, we create opportunities for people of all ages to learn, grow, and contribute through hands-on experiences, sustainable growing practices, and community partnerships.
What began as a small urban farm is growing into a place where neighbors gather, students learn, volunteers serve, and fresh ideas take root — cultivating resilience, belonging, and a healthier future for our community.
