New York City has created a map of Urban Agriculture Sites. This mapping tool will help inform the city's population about Urban Agriculture Policy
Initiatives. Almost 3,000 farms and gardens have already been marked on the map. This is reported on the website of the Mayor's Office of Climate &
Environmental Justice.

“Historically, there hasn’t been a system for ensuring there’s comprehensive data collection and reporting when it comes to the city’s urban agriculture
landscape. We wanted to design a data collection strategy that would give New Yorkers access to relevant and updated urban agriculture information.
This means more residents will be aware of the breadth of farms and gardens in the city and critical activities happening at these sites such as reducing
food insecurity, strengthening community engagement, and providing educational programming available to all. Having more of this information available
in one hub means it can also better inform our upcoming policy initiatives”, said Mayor’s Office of Urban Agriculture Executive Director Qiana Mickie.
