Overview
Urban agriculture is the practice of cultivating, processing, and distributing food in or near urban areas. It is an important component of sustainable urban development, providing a variety of benefits, including a source of fresh produce, economic opportunities for local urban farmers, and employment for those living in underserved communities. Urban agriculture can also help reduce the environmental impact of traditional food production, as well as provide a safe and secure source of food during times of crisis. Urban agriculture is becoming increasingly popular as a way to provide healthier, fresher, and more affordable food to underserved communities in cities around the world.
