Why it matters for urban farming

This "Vision for Promoting Agriculture-Welfare Collaboration" is highly relevant for citizen-driven urban farms. Urban farms can provide an ideal setting for people with disabilities to participate in agricultural activities and connect with their local communities. This vision highlights an opportunity for urban farms to strengthen their role not just as food production sites, but as inclusive community spaces where diverse individuals can work, learn, and find purpose together. By pursuing Noufuku Certification or participating in related human resource development programs, urban farms can open new avenues for social contribution and help build richer, more inclusive communities.
