Did you know that Truthout is a nonprofit and independently funded by readers like you? If you value what we do, please support our work with a donation.
Good food isn’t the only crop that city farmers across the country are growing, according to filmmakers Dan Susman and Andrew Monbouquette. Urban gardens grow stronger, more vibrant communities, too.
Susman and Monbouquette’s documentary, Growing Cities, releases at the end of 2012 (they’re currently running a Kickstarter campaign to put on the finishing touches). The film aims to show what’s possible with little space, limited resources, and a lot of determination.

Matching Opportunity Extended: Please support Truthout today!
Our end-of-year fundraiser is over, but our donation matching opportunity has been extended! All donations to Truthout will be matched dollar for dollar for a limited time.
Your one-time gift today will be matched immediately. Your monthly donation will be matched for the whole first year, doubling your impact.
This matching gift comes at a critical time. As Trump attempts to silence dissenting voices and oppositional nonprofits, reader support is our best defense against the right-wing agenda.
