Black City Farm

Black City Farm is an urban agriculture project designed to address challenges such as high unemployment and inefficient land use in African urban environments. The initiative focuses on sustainable land use, job creation, and community empowerment through several key activities: decentralized urban farming, mobile food processing, and educational programs for skill enhancement. The business model generates income through marketplace sales, product sales, and providing manufacturing services to other gardens. Overall, Black City Farm integrates community members into its economic activities, creating direct job opportunities and promoting self-sufficiency. It aims for net-zero waste production and aligns with various UN Sustainability Goals, planning to expand its reach and impact in the future. The project showcases the transformative potential of integrating sustainable agriculture with community development, aiming for a resilient and productive urban future.
