Organization Mission : At GULB, our mission is to empower people to connect to food and their community by revitalizing urban spaces and building a resilient food culture. We envision a strong network of communities centered around the cultivation of fresh, healthy food. To achieve this, GULB works to grow and gather food along the Wasatch Front through producing food on our small farm in South Salt Lake, educating and inspiring the next generation of farmers through the Small Farm Initiative, and farming in senior community members' backyards in our Back-Farms program. We also work to equitably distribute food by gleaning local produce in our FruitShare program and donating food through our free farmers markets at senior centers.
