Building Equity Through Urban Agriculture
Key Components Of Our Urban Agriculture Sites
1. Healthy Living: Our sites were created to promote healthy eating habits, decrease food insecurites, provide fresh food access, and to promote a healthy lifestyle by creating project-based learning & training for community members to grow their own food. Our goals are to increase food sovereignty for Los Angeles.
2. Life Skills: Gardening, farming, shopping and cooking are integrated into training offered to families, and our standard activities.
3. Occupational Training: Our urban agriculture sites are designed with the potential for career training in agriculture and or food industries.
4. Community Engagement: We encourage all residents, volunteers, schools and businesses, to become growers and trainers alongside families in our programs.
