em um canteiro.

Programa de Botucatu
Segue um texto em inglês sobre a Agricultura Urbana em, Botucatu / São Paulo. Vou contatar os responsáveis (canafloresta@yahoo.com.br) para obter o texto original.
O texto foi publicado pelo Canada's Office of Urban Agriculture (Departamento de Canadense para a Agricultura Urbana)
The Program
Actually, the program serves 11 commercial market gardens, 3 school market gardens, 3 social projects and 2 market gardens in health facilities. It involves 50 families directly. The production process is organic, with an agroecological focus; avoiding contamination of soil, water, farmers and consumers. Furthermore, it helps to raise the local biodiversity while increasing the families' income by aggregating value of products by opening a public market.
Consuming organic products is preferred. They are tastier and more nutritious.
Consumer Awareness Tips
1) Local products:
- To support local farmers;
- Decrease the freight; consequently decreases the final costs and the pollution.
2) Products don't cause environmental degradation:
- They doesn't contaminate the soil and the water during the production process;
- To use more recycled packages and less regular ones.
3) Products good for your health:
- Without toxic products;
- More nutritious.
4) Social product:
- Includes the lower income population;
- Avoid the children's exploitation;
- Respects the worker relationships;
- The protagonists are the farmers;
- Accessibility and fair price.
How Can I get involved?
The Urban Agriculture Program works with the urban community to provide technical assistance, seeds, tools, seedlings, organic fertilizer; to support sales to alternative markets and to help with community organization. People who are involved in this project have lower incomes and are socially excluded. Through the project, they organize community groups that work on the land in order to achieve a social-economic development.

As duas fotos aqui são de projetos de agricultura urbana. Uma é a foto de uma área de produção doméstica e urbana na Columbia Britânica no Canadá. A outra é um desenho de jardim / agrícola urbano vencedora de um conscurso na Inglaterra.
