Community Challenges
Communities across New York City face overlapping challenges:
- Employment Gaps: Barriers to work for re-entry populations, veterans, and low-skill workers.
- Underutilized Space: Sidewalks, vacant lots, and community spaces often sit idle.
- Food Insecurity: Limited access to fresh, healthy produce in underserved neighborhoods.
Our Solutions
Box Farms addresses these challenges with a three-tier model:
- Manufacturing: Constructing elevated garden units while employing underserved populations.
- Installation: Deploying BF Units across sidewalks, community gardens, and institutions.
- Programming: Offering therapeutic gardening sessions and training for vulnerable groups.
