Excerpt:
Urban farming is a growing trend across part of Michigan and the country, and contributes 15% to 20% of the world’s food supply, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Self-sustainability is a major driver of the efforts, local farmers and the USDA said, but there are plenty of other factors driving growth. Among them: As grocery store prices soar, people are looking for other avenues to obtain fresh, organic produce and vegetables. Additionally, local farmers said they see growing produce as a way to give back to their communities and strengthening the bonds they have with their neighbors.
Hillary Coleman started 1991greenery in Lansing in July 2020. Stuck inside due to pandemic lockdowns, she began growing plants in her basement and shipping them to customers.
“It started as a houseplant nursery out of my basement,” Coleman said. “But in 2022, I noticed that (the market) was really saturated. And I was losing money more than making money, especially in the wintertime because by the time people got their plants, they were frozen… So, I made a pivot at the end of 2022.”
