Mission:We support the common interests of urban farmers.

Vision:Our overarching goal is to see urban farming develop into a sector that is not just viable but also thriving and lively in Moncton and beyond. Through lobbying, education, networking, and financial assistance for businesses, this organization works to expand and enhance the urban farming community.

Our plan is to build commercial urban food production models that are economically feasible, socially responsible, and ecologically sound, urban farmers can communicate with one another through the urban farming listserv, workshops, and food gatherings.
