Cuba’s urban farming transformed the country to be self-reliant. Emerging some years ago from a time of food shortage, some citizens began growing vegetables on small patches of empty government lands. These urban plots have transformed both the diets and the income of the people, with over 350,000 jobs being generated that provide relatively high pay. This practice now also supplies most of Cuba’s fresh vegetables, many of which are organically grown. What a great improvement indeed, Cuba! We laud your model of green success in providing for many through the creative and constructive use of lands.
