As the landgrant college of the University of the District of Columbia our mission is to offer research based academic and community outreach programs that improve the quality of life and economic opportunity for residents of the District of Columbia. One of our key initiatives that enable us to reach that goal is our Urban Food Hubs. Each Food Hub seeks to improve the quality of life in neighborhoods throughout Washington, DC by building capacity on four key areas: (1) food production, food preparation, food distribution and closing the loop through waste and water management.
Joining Dr. O'Hara to talk more about urban food hubs and their involvement are Sarah Mousavizadeh, a recent graduate from our architecture program, and Hakeem Mumford, a political science major here at the University of the District of Columbia.
