SOW

Summary

The project consists of an urban farm in a local community. The urban farm is just that a farm spread over an urban area. For this project it will consist of vegetables such as corn, squash, tomatoes, zucchini, etc. This type of project is very important in today’s world where world hunger is not just in poor countries. It has hit close to home where families cannot afford to feed their selves and have a roof over their heads. Urban farming will tackle this problem by helping to feed the homeless and offer a healthy food source to after school programs. Also, with urban farming it helps to lessen the high demand for mass production of vegetables. With all of this being said the purpose of the urban farm is to improve the community socially, economically, and wellness. All of this can be done by offering the community a locally organic food source. While also educating and providing them jobs through the urban farm. The urban farm will also have several events throughout crop season to help improve the community socially.
