Community-based agriculture

Community-based agriculture refers to local farming initiatives that engage community members in growing food and managing agricultural resources. It emphasizes collaboration, sustainability, and local food production, often involving practices like organic farming, urban gardens, and cooperative farming. This approach not only enhances food security and supports local economies but also fosters social connections and empowers individuals by involving them in decision-making processes about their food sources. By prioritizing local interests and environmentally friendly practices, community-based agriculture helps create resilient food systems that benefit both people and the planet.
