Shreveport’s urban farm began in 2019 thanks to the Choice Neighborhood Grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Since then, the farm has grown more than 2,000 pounds of produce; that food is delivered to the residents of the Bayou Grande area. Along with the produce, they are also given cooking demonstrations and workshops to learn how to prepare the food in a fast and easy manner. The urban farm was recently awarded a new grant to provide better accessibility to the gardens. Previously, the garden beds were not easily accessible for the elderly and those with disabilities. On Wednesday, May 24, volunteers for United Way’s Day of Caring gathered at the farm to help set up new beds, pull weeds and help create better access for everyone.
