This mural was created as part of a larger community-led initiative to address food access in Hartford’s North End. Alongside the launch of a hydroponic farm expected to yield up to half a ton of fresh produce annually, the project brings together art, agriculture, and youth empowerment.
My contribution was a vibrant mural painted along the gated enclosure, featuring leafy greens, rooted vegetables, and playful garden critters. Completed in about a week, this mural reflects a shared commitment to sustainability, food justice, and creative community engagement.
