About the partner

Urban Roots Community Farms grows fresh vegetables for low and no-income households. We will offer gardening classes and supplies to empower community members to grow their own food.

Perspective on Health Equity

Building a culture of health in Jersey City means supporting households to access fresh food. Jersey City is a food desert and many of its residents are not fresh fruits and vegetables. Healthy eating is the first step in holistic health and prevents many other long-term health issues.
