80% of the world's population now lives in cities.

Cities are becoming important places for developing sustainable and locally-rooted food systems for meeting our nutritional needs. Many low-income residents of urban areas, such as West Oakland, do not even have access to sufficient fresh foods. People's Grocery is working to grow fresh produce on it's urban farm, propagate a variety of vegetable, herb and flower starts in it's greenhouse, and create micro-enterprise opportunities for local residents. 

The Urban Agriculture Program is: The Cal-Hotel urban farm & Propagation Greenhouse. Click on the titles or pictures to find out more. Please consider visiting our WISH LIST and making a donation of requested items to the People's Grocery Urban Ag Program.
