TheMilkweedMarket

In many cultures around the world, the milkweed plant is a symbol of growth and transformation. Milkweed is a reflection of ODC's goal to facilitate growth and positive transformation in the lives of people with disabilities.
All proceeds from Milkweed Market support ODC's mission: to empower people with disabilities to achieve their work and life goals.

Milkweed Market an ODC Enterprise
Throughout time, the milkweed plant has symbolized the spirit of transformation, of learning your identity and worth, and celebrating your uniqueness. It grows in environments where it is nurtured and appreciated… in that same way, ODC fosters the growth of individuals with disabilities in an atmosphere of trust, support and appreciation for their unique talents and abilities.

Milkweed Market embraces diversity and uniqueness, and it shows in our product offerings. We use primarily locally-sourced ingredients and repurposed materials, and our product line is homemade and handcrafted. All proceeds support ODC’s mission: to empower people with disabilities to achieve their work and life goals.
