A school-based after-school and community health program, we train and empower teens to be hydroponic farmers and food justice ambassadors Teens for Food Justice (TFFJ) is a 501c3 nonprofit galvanizing a youth-led movement to ensure that all New Yorkers have access to fresh, healthy food and to end the cycle of health complications dramatically and unequally impacting low-income communities of color. TFFJ works within Title 1 middle and high schools in food deserts, training students to maintain indoor hydroponic farms growing thousands of pounds of produce annually that is served at school lunch and distributed to surrounding communities. Students also learn nutrition, health, and advocacy skills that empower them to lead themselves and others towards healthier futures.
