It can take a lot of soil and compost to create an urban farming site.  This is Jess Liborio, one of our urban growers watching a truck unload its gold onto the Ingalls School farm site of The Food Project.  I am posting this picture because of the largeness of it.  While you may see a lot of soil, I see a lot of work and a lot of hands coming together to do that work.  On this site alone, we will work with hundreds of volunteers to make food grow.  Those helpers will be schoolchildren, adults from corporations, folks who want to farm, and neighbors who stop by to lend a hand (or two!).  Thanks to all of you who help The Food Project do what it does best–growing and distributing food to those in need.
