Our Vision
We envision a community wealthy with fresh, healthy food and cultural and educational resources, supported by our urban farm and dedicated partners.
Our impact through urban food production: Urban agriculture increases access to healthy, locally grown, and culturally appropriate sources of food. 种植和分享食物可以在投资不足和服务不足的社区创造财富，同时保护绿色空间, providing places for neighbors to come together, and building community cohesion. Urban food systems lessen the burdens of food insecurity, diabetes, heart disease, and other nutrition-related health impacts. Locally grown food increases climate resilience, captures and stores carbon, creates urban wildlife and pollinator habitat, improves watershed health, reduces pollution, generates jobs, and grows local economies. Our 4.圣安东尼奥东区1英亩的城市农场与当地合作伙伴合作，创造可持续发展的道路, local, urban food systems where our community can access healthy, nutritious food.
