CurbSide Croft
As a Buffalo based, urban farm, CurbSide Crofts mission is to bridge the widening gap between consumers and producer. Following the adage that community has only as much power as it has control over its basic food production, Curbside Croft will help empower the community through the use of integrated, urban agriculture.
By practicing chemical free, natural methods, Curbside Croft will provide low cost, locally grown, healthy produce to the immediate area. Acting as an agent of change, CurbSide Croft hopes to initiate a back-to-the-city movement towards food sovereignty, providing the knowledge and opportunities that community members can use to regain control over their own means of food production.
Update: In its first year, CurbSide Croft provided over 1000 pounds of fresh produce to the neighborhood and the greater Western New York Community.
The 2010 season will see an expansion of the current offerings in addition to experimenting with new crops and soil amendments.
