"You have the land, we grow the produce." This is the motto of BK farmyards in New York City. BK farmyards is an urban farming group that signs people up and uses their free land, most likely their own backyard, as an urban farm. They enable people to grow their own produce, sell it if they want, and learn the benefits of organic food as opposed to processed food. BK farmyards is growing more than just produce, they're growing a community. food.curated. w/ Liza de Guia Food is a shared experience.

What an amazing idea. Farming on other people's land. Genius! www.JesusReallyDoesLoveYou.com

We need people like this all over the country! There is so much wasted space. Can you see this as front yards instead of grass? Share with neighbors [without charge] that maybe can't physically garden but would love to eat really fresh produce. The feeling you get from giving is so good. You will be blessed, and the people that receive are so truly blessed as well. I'm not saying give it all away, but plant a little extra, if you have the room. If you have the know-how & the room, maybe you could get the neighborhood together and plant a "neighborhood garden" & you could guide them & they could help with the work. There are lots of possibilities if you just put forth the effort.

I got a bit choked up watching this. I wish I can give this company 1000 thumbs up but sadly I can only give one :-( I love the idea of sustainable living and mass production awareness. There are thousands of small backyards that are just taking up space all over the 5 boroughs and a company like this one is a true true blessing. I live in a small apartment in brooklyn and do not have a yard or a porch or even a balcony, so I can't indulge in this lifestyle, but my goal in life is to definitely have a home where my yard is bigger than the house itself just so I can have my own farm. If there was a way to grow mango trees in New York, I'd be the first to do it! I frickin LOVE mangoes!!!

this is not NYC it's Brooklyn

I see the cause but the crying doesn't do it.

I have a small urban farm at my house , it is in the city but you would not know it in my backyard!

I would something like that but I wouldn't sell. It would just be for my family

I am planning to work with my city to start using abandoned property to farm food for local schools and food banks. Any tips you might have would be greatly appreciated.
