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
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.

“Very simply, I find peace and joy and connection when I’m out on the farm and in the garden. Not just the physical connection to the earth and the food that I put into my body, but also to the community that exists around the farm.”
- Kevin Sease, Ranch House Recovery Alumni and Simple Promise Farms Employee
“My experience in treatment would not have been the same without working on the farm. It has changed how I view my body, the choices that I make to stay healthy, and how I want to live my life. Sharing my story and working side-by-side with the community has helped me with my recovery and will, hopefully, help someone else.”
- Tim Templeton, Ranch House Recovery Alumni & Simple Promise Farms Volunteer
