We believe in food justice for all
All of Cultivating Community’s programs are rooted in the idea that everyone has the right to good food. We empower New Americans by teaching them sustainable farming practices and connecting them to the community through our food hub. We support and manage diverse urban growing spaces, enabling community members to grow their own food within city limits. We increase access to local, healthy foods for low-income consumers, providing affordable produce through CSA shares, farm stands, and mobile markets. We invest in youth of all ages, offering opportunities for food education, community engagement, and leadership development.
