Mission

Founded in 2009 by artist linda goode bryant, project eats is a living installation of neighborhood-based, small-plot, high yield farms that use urban agriculture, partnerships, and social enterprise to sustainably grow and equitably distribute fresh, local, organically grown food in communities across new york city. Project eats transforms vacant lots and rooftops into viable farms supporting farm stands, pantries, prepared food, and community programs in neighborhoods disproportionately experiencing inequitable food access and diet-related illness across new york city. Communities deserve to grow their own food right where they live-art that feeds.
