Free farm
More information about this particular project in this video:
"The Free Farm is an urban farm founded in January 2010. In our first year we have built a farm, grown and given away over 2,500 pounds of fresh organic produce, convened gardening and urban homesteading workshops, and hosted community, school, and religious groups."
