East New York Farms! UCC Youth Garden

このサイトについて

The mission of the East New York Farms Project is to organize youth and adults to address food justice in our community by promoting local sustainable agriculture and community-led economic development. East New York Farms! is a project of the United Community Centers in partnership with local residents. The East New York Farmers Market is a community-run market including 23 local gardeners, 3 regional farmers, and 11 local vendors, serving over 14,000. East New York Farms! grows fresh food for our community and provides support to help others do the same. They manage two urban farms--the UCC Youth Farm and Hands and Heart Garden-- and work with an ever-growing network of gardeners representing backyard gardens and many of the over 60 community gardens throughout East New York. ENYF! is launching a youth compost challenge to educate youth farmers about compost. 2013 Winner of First-Ever Manhattan Community Scale Composting Contest.
