Fix Food Deserts in Chicago's Southside


Fix Food Deserts in Chicago's Southside
The Issue
We are seeking to create a sustainable urban garden in the Riverdale neighborhood of Chicago, IL. This initiative aims to provide fresh produce year-round through both hydroponic and traditional farming methods. Urban gardens not only contribute to food security but also promote community engagement and environmental awareness. According to the USDA, urban agriculture can help improve food security in communities where access to fresh fruits and vegetables is limited. By supporting this petition, you're endorsing a healthier, greener future for our community as we submit our grant application. Your support will demonstrate the community's desire for this project and significantly increase our chances of securing funding. Please sign this petition if you believe in fostering a healthier lifestyle and environment through local agriculture!
The grant application closes May 14th so this is urgent that I can show community support for this project. The picture is of the projected plan.
