URBAN FARMING's Interests
|
| General | Thanks for your support!
We bring community members together to plant food gardens
on unused land. Each harvest
is shared with neighbors, food banks and homeless shelters, providing hungry people with fresh and healthy produce!
• grown without pesticides •
Growing food on unused land helps to lower the heat index
and greens the environment
to keep our planet cool!
URBAN FARMING: LOCATIONS
Detroit, MI • Chicago, IL • Los Angeles, CA • Minneapolis/St. Paul • Montego Bay, Jamaica • New York, NY • Newark, NJ •
St. Louis, MO • Hawaii • North Carolina • England • Canada • (coming soon) Atlanta & New Orleans
In 2008 we have the equivalent of approximately 600 - 20 x 20 ft gardens across the US and abroad.
This year Urban Farming gardens, partner gardens and our various initiatives to end hunger will produce an estimated 150 tons/300,000 pounds of food.
Harvest History:
2005 estimated 1 ton
2006 estimated 5 tons
2007 estimated 30 tons

During World War II
Twenty million people
planted “Victory Gardens”
at their homes and grew 40%
of this Nation’s produce. They
did it then and we can do it again!
