Baltimore Free Farm is an egalitarian agricultural collective with a variety of initiatives aimed toward providing healthy food access in Baltimore. They reform empty lots and turn them into community food gardens, rescue edible produce and other food that is about to be thrown out of grocery stores and distribute it for free, and host a variety of educational workshops and events to promote local musicians.
