David Ventura has been part of Smile Farms since the beginning at our IGHL campus in Moriches, bringing with him a love of the outdoors and weightlifting that he quickly put to use in the greenhouse. He has taken on some of the most physically demanding tasks — lifting heavy bales of soil, hauling full pails of plant debris, and moving large plants — with dedication and care. David’s passion, along with his kindness, leadership, patience, and humor, has created a ripple effect across his team and the broader community.
David’s journey shows how Smile Farms’ mission creates opportunities for people with developmental disabilities to grow, contribute, and be celebrated for their unique talents.
