The ReVision Urban Agriculture Project has three main objectives shaping our work and directing development of the urban farm: small-scale, green, economic development; community food security; and job training and education. These goals are woven into the fabric of the farm and the programs we operate.
Description:
The ReVision Urban Agriculture Project works in conjunction with ReVision House, a shelter for homeless women and their children located in the Franklin Field neighborhood of Dorchester. The urban farm is an innovative agriculture and aquaculture project aiming to increase access to affordable, nutritious, culturally appropriate food for shelter residents and community members through our community-supported farm and greenhouses. The ReVision Urban Agriculture Project has three main objectives shaping our work and directing development of the urban farm: small-scale, green, economic development; community food security; and job training and education. These goals are woven into the fabric of the farm and the programs we operate.
