Urban Patchwork

Urban Patchwork (UP) was Austin’s first nonprofit neighborhood farm network and Community Supported Agriculture. It helps neighbors turn unused yard space into farmland to produce vegetables, fruit, nuts, and eggs. In exchange for hosting farm plots, residents and businesses receive fresh vegetables. Founded in 2009, UP offers farm start-up programs, nutritional workshops for residents, home food production, canning, and fermentation courses, and job training and creation.
