| A
local network of home gardens = A community of
food producers! |
Victory Gardens 2007+ calls for
a more active
role for cities in shaping agricultural and food
policy. It is a concept currently in development
with the city of San Francisco that would provide
a subsidized home gardening program for individuals
and neighborhoods.
This program offers tools, training & materials
for urban dwellers to participate in a city-wide
transformation of underutilized backyards— turning
them into productive growing spaces.
The project draws from the historical model
of the 1940's American Victory Garden program to
provide a basis for developing urban agriculture
as a viable form of sustainable food practice in
the city.
