This research examines the role of urban farming in addressing food insecurity in North St. Louis, a historically marginalized area with limited access to fresh, affordable food, by analyzing the impact of community-based farming initiatives through a socio-technological lens using GIS mapping, data visualization, and storytelling tools, while investigating challenges such as land access, funding, and policy barriers, with reference to primary sources like local urban farm initiatives and secondary sources on urban agriculture’s role in food justice and city planning, ultimately aiming to determine whether these efforts offer a viable long-term solution to food deserts and community resilience.
