About Urban Roots

Urban Roots Farm uses sustainable agriculture to transform the lives of young people and inspire, engage, and nourish the Austin community. Urban Roots provides paid internships to Austin youth, age 14-17, to work on our 3.5 acre urban sustainable farm in East Austin. Each year, they aim to grow 30,000 pounds of produce with the Urban Roots community of youth, community volunteers, and staff, and donate 40% of their harvest to local soup kitchens and food pantries and sell the other 60% at farmers' markets, through their Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program, and wholesale. Farm address: 7651 Delwau Lane Austin, TX 78725

The Urban Roots Farm is not open to the public except for volunteer days and other scheduled events. For more information about their program, contact them.
