Farm fresh food right from your yard
Urban Farms...Green City Schoolyards...Consulting
URBAN FARMS:
We build, design, and maintain individual and family-sized produce farms for your backyard or rooftop. These raised-bed farms can be as small as 4'x4', and will supply you with an abundance of fresh, organic produce year-round. Raised-bed city farms can be placed anywhere that receives 6 hours of more of sunlight. Backyard farming saves time and energy, while also cutting out the middle man and bringing the produce straight from your yard to your family's table! We also maintain the farm for you, so you don't have to get your hands dirty!
Your city farm will be less expensive than shopping organic at big, expensive supermarkets or at the farmer's market. By cutting costs through lowering the amount of gas guzzled and energy being exerted, your backyard farm bypasses up-charging and added costs which raises the price of organic produce at the market. City farms start at $350 for the building of a 4'x4' farm, which will feed one individual year-round, for years to come. There is a weekly maintenance charge starting at $40 a week for us to maintain the farm, but if you desire to maintain the farm yourself, we can work with you to make that possible. Prices increase depending on how big of a family you intend to feed.
Want to learn more? Ask us to email you a survey to see if we can work with your space. We can also send you a list of the produce you can grow from your city farm, and a pricing chart.

GREEN CITY SCHOOLYARDS
Taught by experienced farmers and educators, the program makes students aware of issues surrounding nutrition, obesity, and allow them a better understanding of where food comes from. The program will teach students to think globally, and act locally, while building a sense of community and creating a productive outdoor space for kids to go to in the afternoon. They will build confidence through watching something they have personally nurtured grow to term and provide sustenance for themselves and their families.
We want to work with your school! If you think your school would have trouble directly funding the program, we can work with you to find outside resources. Contact us and we will send you our proposal.
