Promise of Urban Agriculture
Self-Paced Courses
Our work on Realizing the Promise of Urban Agriculture (RPUA), started in October 2020, to create trainings and educational resources for multiple audiences engaged in urban agriculture and, specifically, commercial urban agriculture. Based on the 2019 report, “The Promise of Urban Agriculture,” RPUA draws on the evolution of 14 urban farms, and insights from over 150 policy-makers, urban planners, funders, and nonprofit and community organizers engaged in local food systems and urban farming to uncover the policies, resources, and future research and development needed to support the successful development of commercial urban farms. Gain the critical knowledge needed for creating or supporting successful commercial urban farms. We use the term 'commercial' to include any farm that sells products to support some or all of the farm's activities.
