Problem Statement

sustainable access to healthy food nearly impossible.

Solution
Collaborative Urban Agriculture
When food is grown and produced within cities,
particularly in low-income areas, communities not only
become more engaged and empowered by becoming
active participants of the food distribution system, but
cities become more sustainable, and residents’ health
improves.

Facilitating access to sustainable food sources in our
cities creates a ripple effect that helps to address
health, poverty, and environmental issues.
