UFI is a pioneering organization dedicated to the development and promotion of urban farming practices, working diligently to engage individuals and foster a vibrant, healthy community.

    We recognize the immense potential of urban farming to address various societal challenges, including climate change and the need for climate resilient communities, food insecurity, and the decline of community connections.

Our motto is “we don’t just grow food, we grow people.”

    Headquartered in Mattapan, UFI is committed to advancing urban farming as a way to support food justice, community resilience, and economic opportunity. Through hands-on education, community engagement, and food production, UFI empowers individuals to connect with healthy food systems and creates sustainable and connected urban communities.
