Growing Urban – A Lower West Side Story

From the kitchen table to the boardroom table, USDA brings people together across the nation for: healthier food, natural resources and people; a stronger agricultural industry; and economic growth, jobs and innovation.

Each Friday, meet those farmers, producers and landowners through our #FridaysOnTheFarm stories. Visit local farms, ranches, forests and resource areas where USDA customers and partners do right and feed everyone.

This Friday, meet Carrie Nader and Alexander Wadsworth, owners of Westside Tilth Farm in Buffalo, New York. This urban farm is situated on about three-fourths of an acre spanning a few lots in the Lower West Side region of the city.  Nader and Wadsworth are committed to providing the community with a variety of organically grown produce.
