cultivating community
Local Agriculture in Portland, Maine All of Cultivating Community’s programs are
rooted in the idea that everyone has the right to good food. We empower New
Americans by teaching them sustainable farming practices and connecting them to
the community through our food hub. We support and manage diverse urban growing
spaces, enabling community members to grow their own food within city limits. We
increase access to local, healthy foods for low-income consumers, providing
affordable produce through farm stands and mobile markets. We invest in youth of
all ages, offering opportunities for food education, community engagement, and
leadership development.
