Meet Tony TNT, owner of Growing With Purpose, a Ferguson Farmers’ Market vendor bringing more than products to the market—he’s bringing knowledge, purpose, and a commitment to community.

Founded in 2025, Growing With Purpose is based in The Ville in North St. Louis City. Tony has been part of the Ferguson Farmers’ Market community for at least three years, making him a familiar and valued presence at the market.

When asked why he does what he does, Tony’s answer comes back to community and the next generation. He believes everyone has to eat, and that learning how to grow and produce food gives people skills they can use to sustain themselves and create income. For Tony, it’s about helping people in the community while showing the little ones growing up that these are valuable, practical skills they can carry with them for life.

His message to Ferguson Farmers’ Market shoppers is simple and powerful:

Grow Something. 🌱

Stop by the market, support Growing With Purpose, and celebrate the knowledge, skills, and community spirit that make the Ferguson Farmers’ Market special.
