From Empty Lot to Garden Plot: Urban Agriculture in Chula Vista

Urban Farm DB summary

A planning proposal examines how agriculture could be integrated into Chula Vista, California, a city with both distinctly urban and suburban character. The project reviews the city's history, demographics, and existing urban agriculture policies compared with other California cities, then develops evaluation criteria applied to two contrasting sites at opposite ends of the city. Its stated purpose is to demonstrate how agriculture could be integrated into both urban and suburban settings and to serve as a policy guide, rather than to report implementation outcomes or measured effects.
