COVID-19 Response Effort

It is a difficult time for all of us, but the most affected are the most vulnerable. Part of Urban Farming Education’s mission is to address food insecurity issues, and our response to that is Fresh Food Collaboration Movement. With a partnership formed by like-minded members of our community, our attempts is to alleviate food access issues caused by the COVID-19 outbreak. Our objective is to assist families and individuals by providing nutritious and waste-free boxes to school districts, agencies, and organizations in need.

Our Mission

Our mission is to build gardens and conduct programs designed for education, sustenance, ecotherapy, social impact, and urban farming for profit. We specifically serve schools, domestic violence shelters, homeless shelters, foster care prevention centers, and the disabled and elderly.

Our gardens and programs are fertile sites for both community and personal development, engaging with the ever-present global concerns around food sustainability and environmental issues.
‍
This information is accurate as of October 14, 2020. We have extended our food distribution program to continue to serve those in need. As we continue to serve our community we will need additional volunteers to help with assembling, packing, and distributing. For additional information, visit Fresh Food Collaboration.

Thank you to our partners & affiliations.

"Before we got involved with Urban Farming Education, we really had little connection to the land on which the food we were sharing with the community was actually being grown and harvested. The Urban Farming Education is an opportunity to share with people who may not be aware that you know food comes from the ground, we're connected to the ground."
