Urban Harvest STL in St. Louis, Missouri. This is the first year they are doing Rooftop Farming. It is easier to do Rooftop sites than lose land for Community Gardens from new Development. The goal is to have sites on as many tall buildings as possible. Located in Colorado, this Group helps Veterans learn how to become Farmers. This creates new jobs, new business owners, and allows Veterans and their Families to find a way to feed themselves. When many Veterans come back being underemployed, this allows them to have a business of their own, Dignity, and help feed their Families. Call Veterans to Farmers for more information. 38
