Urban Harvest STL builds community around INCLUSIVE AND RESILIENT local food systems

Urban Harvest STL believes in food rights -  all members of our community should have equitable access to fresh, healthy food regardless of socioeconomic status, race or location. We grow healthy produce across a network of six urban farms in downtown and North St. Louis and donate the majority of the harvest to nonprofit partners serving communities with limited or non-existent access to healthy, nutritious food. Urban Harvest STL also educates and engages the surrounding community in these efforts.

Mozzarella (pictured here) hopes you had an egg-cellent day! . Did you know that you can guess the color of a chicken's eggs by the color of her earlobes? Red earlobes predict that a chicken's eggs will be a shade of brown, while white earlobes indicate white eggs! Mozzarella lays dark brown eggs, but our chickens' diverse earlobe colors correlate with the wide range of egg colors we get! #stlouis #rooftopchickens #urbanag #foodroof
Happy World Food Day! . This fruit may be tiny, but look at the immense joy it has created! As a farm, we could have celebrated World Food Day with almost any of our photos. However, this one speaks to the deep connection between food and community that we hope to cultivate. We aspire not just to grow plants, but to engage people in our local food system in unexpected and delightful ways! 📷@kaylahatcherphotography #stlouis #worldfoodday #urbanagriculture #flance
This view from the FOOD ROOF reminds us that we are not just a farm - we're a farm embedded in the busy downtown St Louis. It's crucial for us to grow food where people live in order to educate and empower others to cultivate equitable access to healthy, sustainably grown produce! #stlouis #rooftopfarm #urbanagriculture #foodroof
