growing communities

Our food is grown in DC's Ward 7 and 8, right in the neighborhoods that need it most. Low income areas lacking easy access to grocery stores.

The challenges of food insecurity do not stop in the winter, that’s why we don’t stop in the winter either. We continue growing & providing healthy veggies for DC’s food deserts in 30 degree weather with 8 inches of snow beneath us! Today our farmers took on the tasks of harvesting & processing over 50 pounds of our winter veggies. Though it was cold outside, our veggies were healthy and cozy inside our hoop houses! #fooddeserts #grownindc #urbanfarming #wintergrowing #foodaccess #30degrees
