MISSION

At Chicago Farm Lab, our mission is to cultivate a resilient and inclusive gardening community that enhances the green space of our underserved community through regenerative agriculture. We foster environmental stewardship and sustainable practices that nurture and regenerate the soil, plants and the people of Belmont Cragin. We are a vibrant Latino community on the west side of Chicago with a rich history of neighborhood community strength.

VISION

Chicago Farm Lab envisions a future where every individual has hands-on access educating themselves about nutritious food, opportunities to grow that food, education in agricultural self-sufficiency and a thriving natural environment where neighbors create meaningful and collaborative relationships around regenerative agriculture.
