Foster Street Urban Agriculture Program

The Foster Street Urban Agriculture Program in Glenview, IL, is dedicated to cultivating fresh produce for our local food pantry and the Teen Baby Nursery, providing essential food assistance to those in need. Through hands-on learning, children engage in urban agriculture, gaining valuable skills in planting, harvesting, and cooking with organic vegetables. Our program empowers youth with knowledge of entrepreneurship as they learn to sell their harvests at local farmers markets. With a community garden at its heart, Foster Street not only promotes nutrition education but also fosters a sense of community and connection to the environment.
