EDUCATION AND OUTREACH
FFA started out as a small team of local farmers supporting one another by:
- Hosting farmer education forums and pop-up-markets
- Informing community and residents with crucial information about resource capacity and developing strategic business partnerships
- Establishing new urban farm hubs for soil/water analysis, testing, composting and recycling
- Educating residents on compliance, application processing, and increasing volunteer rates while mitigating safety concerns and produce contamination
- Engaging students through on-farm experiences to promote STEM and the latest best practices for new producer
- Assisting schools, community groups and property owners in development of sustainable gardens, pop-up markets, recycling and compost programs

URBAN AG & DEVELOPMENT
Economic inequality and inequalities in access to healthy food are key drivers of poor diet and ill health among young people. A clear indicator stems from the fact that in 2024 the majority rural and urban low-income neighborhoods still have significantly less access to fresh produce than other residents, according to researchers at Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health. Higher grocery prices due to food deserts and inflation are examples of how historical, social, economic and environmental factors continue to hold many communities back, creating more barriers to food security.
