  • Farming can increase access to fresh, healthy food in underserved communities.
     
3. Economic Empowerment4. Environmental Stewardship
  • Sustainable farming practices can promote conservation and reduce environmental degradation.
5. Social Justice
  • Farming can be a platform for addressing social injustices, such as land rights and workers' rights.
     
6. Education
  • Farms can serve as outdoor classrooms, teaching people about agriculture, nutrition, and sustainability.
     
7. Health and Wellness
  • Farming can promote physical and mental well-being through access to green spaces and healthy food.
     
8. Rural Development
  • Farming can contribute to the revitalization of rural areas and preserve traditional ways of life.
