Urban Food Forests

"Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces,

I would still plant my apple tree."  

- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr

We build urban food forests. Our urban food forest program produces low-cost, organic, nutritious food in communities that structurally have little access to it.  We help empower urban residents to create sustainable, replicable gardens that demonstrate how it is possible to grow a complete nutritional diet safely and profitably in the city.

We can then utilize these spaces as educational centers that serve as living classrooms for community members to practice Urban Permaculture and bio-intensive gardening techniques, and empower themselves with the knowledge and inspiration to continue growing food for themselves, their families, and community members.

Planting Justice is currently seeking new sites to transform into high-yield food forests using Permaculture design techniques. Contact us if you would like to collaborate!
