Founded in 1994, Urban Harvest has garnered a well-deserved reputation as a leader in the local food movement. We focus on building food security and resiliency to the greater Houston community through weekly farmers market, adult and youth gardening education, mobile farmers markets and robust network of over 168+ community gardens. Our work provides thousands of people access to local, healthy food and supports an ever-growing network of farmers and growers in a 200 mile radius of Houston.
Under the direction of an all-volunteer board, Urban Harvest has grown from humble beginnings to employ a full-time staff and literally thousands of volunteers. Funding comes from individual and corporate donations, private foundations, and public grants.
The Edible Schoolyard Project is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the transformation of public education by using organic school gardens, kitchens, and cafeterias to teach both academic subjects and the values of nourishment, stewardship, and community.
Edible education provides hands-on experiences that connect students to food, nature, and each other; and it systematically addresses the crises of climate change, public health, and social inequality. At its heart is a dynamic and joyful learning experience for every child.
