http://www.sustainablefingerlakes.org/map/listing/quarter-acre-for-the-people-programThe Quarter Acre for the People program connects families of African and/or Indigenous ancestry as well as refugee families who have historically been displaced from land, providing food production opportunities, garden education as well as access to cooperative farming, homesteading and farm business opportunities on local farm/fallow land. It connects community members who systemically have been relegated to living in urban landscapes with farmers and owners of rural lands so that the land can be used to plant, maintain, and harvest perennial veggies, fruit and nut trees, and grapevines. This project involves a coordinated effort by farmers, local landowners, and community members to address issues of land access and the corresponding health disparities experienced by this community through land-sharing and perennial planting.
