Community Conservation
Advocates for land security for immigrant and beginning farmers
The Making Allies for Healthier Communities partnership promotes healthy communities by conserving quality farmland for local farmers to grow and sell fresh food to all of Milwaukee, especially in underserved neighborhoods, and to improve water quality in the Milwaukee River Watershed and Lake Michigan.
It also advocates for land security for immigrant and beginning farmers and promotes best farming practices to build healthy soils to ensure all people have access to good food and clean water.
