    The Green Urban Lunch Box

    Our mission is to empower people to connect to their food and community by revitalizing urban spaces and building a resilient food culture. The Green Urban Lunch Box envisions a strong network of communities centered on the cultivation of food. We seek to prevent food from being wasted and sent to the landfill by rescuing it from unutilized fruit trees, we seek to lessen the carbon footprint of our food by growing and distributing food locally in the Salt Lake Valley, and we seek to grow food without the use of harmful chemicals and materials.

    Wasatch Community Gardens
     

    The mission of Wasatch Community Gardens is to empower people to grow and eat healthy, organic, local food. Since 1989, we have provided children, adults, and families in Salt Lake County with access to land and education for growing and eating fresh produce, while building and nurturing community connections through gardening and healthy food. We accomplish this through four main programs: Community Garden, Community Education, Youth and School Garden, and Job Training Programs. Learn more at wasatchgardens.org
