Our mission is to empower the community to supply itself with healthy food, while providing the resources to promote sustainability within our community.

Our objective is to purchase vacant lots through out the community from the ACCDC, and develop these spaces into Urban Farms. Each space will have a specific function or purpose, but all properties will be used to grow some type of food for the community. Whether fruit and nut trees, or full gardens, each space will be used to grow food; In the City, For the City, By the City.
