two missions, one purpose
Together, Howdy Homemadeand 29 Acres share a common belief: everyone deserves the opportunity to work, contribute, and thrive.
Through HowdyBy29, we’re combining exceptional ice cream with meaningful employment opportunities for individuals with neurodiversity. Every scoop helps create opportunities to build confidence, develop valuable skills, foster independence, and strengthen connections within our community.
But HowdyBy29 is about more than ice cream. It’s about creating a workplace where everyone has the opportunity to discover their strengths, contribute their talents, and be recognized for the value they bring.
Every scoop creates opportunity. And with every party pack, catering order, event, and visit, you’re helping us build a more inclusive community—one scoop at a time.
The "by 29" represents 29 Acres, a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering individuals with autism and other neurodiversity through residential living, employment services, day programming, and transitional support programs. By creating a safe, supportive, and opportunity-filled community, 29 Acres helps individuals build meaningful, independent lives while fostering connection, purpose, and joy.
