Growing Power Staves Off Growing Produce Costs

Karen Herzog of JSOnline reported Sunday that, despite rising food costs, Growing Power, the nonprofit urban farming organization and land trust with operations in Milwaukee and Chicago, is still offering their Farm-City Market Baskets for just $14 each.

Filled with seasonal fruits and veggies grown with sustainable methods, one basket can provide a weekly supply of fresh produce for up to four people.

Part of Growing Power's ambitious mission is offer a fair food price to all, but particularly to those city dwellers at low income levels who often have limited access to fresh produce and who may otherwise go without.
