MISSION
Farm School NYC's mission is to train NYC residents in urban agriculture, build self-reliant communities, and inspire positive local action around food sovereignty and social, economic, and racial justice.

VISION
At Farm School NYC, we envision a world with thriving BIPOC farmers, flourishing sustainable agriculture, and equitable access to fresh, locally grown food. Our commitment to healing spaces, care-filled connections, and principles of sovereignty, land justice, and liberation shapes a legacy that honors our ancestors and builds a proud future.

We value Justice, Diversity, Growth, Learning, Abundance, Solidarity, Transparency, and Radical Optimism in our work.
