Abstract
Urban agriculture is a solution to a lot of problems, such as unemployment, food security, food sustainability, and community empowerment, but there are some factors that stand in the way of urban agriculture reaching it’s full potential. This report will examine some of those factors, such as zoning laws, support programs, as well as the stereotype of people (mostly women) involved in urban agriculture, through case studies in Detroit, Chicago, and New York. Urban agriculture programs with executive boards help navigate zoning laws to funding to extension programs to give people the tools and knowledge to farm in a city. As a community service project, a donation of alfalfa sprout seeds will be given to a community garden in the nearby city of New Brunswick. An instruction pamphlet will be distributed with these seeds to show how to grow alfalfa sprout seeds indoors.
