The Problem

Our wish for this project is to promote sustainable living in the city of Camden, promote environmental awareness, beautify the city and lessen crime.

Our Plan

Through this project, we are looking to promote sustainable living in the city of Camden through the distribution of free produce, in a city labeled as a "food desert" during recent years. We are looking for cost effective and recyclable options to grow our produce, while educating members of the community about agriculture around the world, how different cultures depend on agriculture, how individuals in different environments face abuse, how climate change is affecting the world and how we can innovate change.
