OUR MISSION
Our method is simple: plant gardens, nourish families, strengthen communities, and harvest health.
To us, access to fresh food through local urban gardens is at the root of thriving communities.
Health in the Hood connects our most food-insecure communities to more nutritious food
and healthier, happier lives.
Our Programs
-
Urban Gardens
We transform vacant spaces into vibrant urban gardens, providing fresh produce and educational opportunities for local residents.
-
Food Distribution
Through pop-up events and partnerships with local pantries, we distribute free, nutritious food to individuals and families in need.
-
Wellness Programs
We offer nutrition and fitness classes to promote healthy lifestyles within the communities we serve.
6.4 million children in the U.S. are food insecure
Food insecurity is inadequate access to nutritious food.
17.6 million Americans live in low food access areas
The USDA defines low food access areas as communities where many residents live far from a grocery store—
over 1 mile in cities or 10 miles in rural areas.
But access to food isn’t just about distance. These neighborhoods often face barriers like lack of transportation and few affordable, healthy options, putting families at greater risk for diet-related diseases like diabetes and heart disease.
