Homegrown Minneapolis, a citywide initiative focused on developing a healthy local food system, is looking to evaluate current policies and community need in order to better prepare for changes in the future. Urban farming is one aspect of the larger urban agriculture and sustainable food systems that Homegrown Minneapolis oversees for the city.
