Mt. Airy CURE is the Community Development Corporation for the neighborhood of Mt. Airy. Our organization engages UC students through our community garden by offering an opportunity for Community Building: The garden serves as a gathering place where neighbors can connect, share knowledge, and foster a sense of belonging. Educational Opportunities: The garden provides hands-on learning experiences for children and adults alike, teaching them about sustainable agriculture, nutrition, and the importance of local food systems. Environmental Stewardship: By growing our own food, we reduce our reliance on imported produce and minimize our carbon footprint. Economic Empowerment: The garden empowers community members to grow their own food, reducing their household expenses and increasing their budgets.
