The USDA and the Cornell Small Farms Program recently released a new, self-paced online course designed for city planners and local advocates who are looking for best practices for urban agriculture planning. Individuals can register for free until January 31, 2025. After that date, individuals can access the content for a fee.

Upon completing this course, you will be able to:

  • Explain how urban agriculture relates to broader planning priorities in cities, towns, and suburbs.
  • Describe how zoning and comprehensive planning influence urban agriculture outcomes.
  • Integrate urban agriculture efforts into emerging areas of planning, like sustainability and equity.
  • Articulate strategies and techniques that foster inclusive community engagement processes that can be used to support urban agriculture planning processes.
