Join Our New Urban Agriculture Network
The Los Angeles and San Fernando chapters of Climate Reality are kicking off the Urban Agriculture Network to promote urban agriculture as a climate solution.
Whether you’re already engaged in urban agriculture work in your city or you’re just getting started, the Urban Agriculture Network will create a space for relationship-building, information exchange, and sparking new projects in the areas of:
-
Farms, community gardens, backyard chickens, bee-keeping, scratch cooking, and controlled-environment agriculture.
-
Food hubs, farm-to-school programs, and food banks.
-
City and county zoning issues and climate plans.
-
Partnering with environmental groups on land use questions, flood control, biodiversity, and the health of our rivers and coastlines.
-
Working with food policy councils on food hubs, food banks, and food deserts.
-
Working with the USDA to bring up their new urban service centers and reach our local farmers with technical assistance, loans, and grants.
Excited to get started? Sign up to learn more about this new initiative and join our next meeting on Friday, January 24 at 5 PM ET/ 2 PM PT.
