Veggielution Urban Farming Project

Veggielution Urban Farming Project is a nonprofit organization based in San Jose, California. With a team of 31 employees, they operate on a budget exceeding $10,000 annually. Veggielution's mission centers around promoting community engagement and sustainable food practices. They cultivate 6 acres of land at Emma Prusch Park in East San Jose, providing opportunities for volunteers and youth to participate in active farming. The organization also offers a sliding scale farm stand, allowing community members to access fresh, locally grown produce, and hosts workshops to educate the public on healthy eating and food sourcing. What sets Veggielution apart is its commitment to building bridges between people of diverse backgrounds through shared experiences in the garden. Their programs emphasize hands-on learning and foster a sense of connection to the land and the food they grow.
