Build Urban Food Forests

Our urban food forest program produces low-cost, organic, nutritious food in communities that structurally have little access to it.  At schools, people's homes, empty lots, and spiritual centers, we bring community members together in action to create sustainable, replicable gardens that demonstrate how it
is possible to grow a complete nutritional diet safely and profitably
in an urban environment.  We can then utilize these spaces as educational centers that serve as living classrooms for community members to practice Urban Permaculture and bio-intensive gardening techniques, and empower themselves with the knowledge and inspiration to continue growing food for themselves, their families, and community members.
