Little Rock Urban Farming (LRUF) is a community based food enterprise located in the heart of Little Rock, Arkansas. We specialize in the production of organic fruits, vegetables, herbs and cut flowers for local markets. LRUF is dedicated to urban organic food production and the urban agrarian lifestyle.
In addition, LRUF is a new farmer incubator. Every year we accept 2 to 4 apprentices who come to learn about the production, marketing and distribution of organic fruits, flowers and vegetables.
The Little Rock Urban Farming Community Supported Agriculture program provides a fresh basket of produce and flowers to each of our shareholders every week during the growing season.
Little Rock Urban Farming is proud to be a founding member of the Hillcrest Farmers Market. The market started in 2011 as a collaborative effort between local growers and artisans and the Pulaski Heights Baptist Church to promote a healthy, vibrant community in Hillcrest. The market continues to prosper and flourish, and we are excited about the future potential of the market to serve our community.
Whole Foods in Little Rock will be carrying LRUF certified organic vegetables, herbs, and flowers this season. Our products will be labeled as local organic and should be advertised under our in-store LRUF profile.
