Jade Banham is a passionate advocate based in the United States, dedicated to addressing urban food insecurity, harmful farming practices, and the disconnection from nature in New York City. With a vision to transform urban spaces into thriving permaculture farms, Jade aims to repurpose areas like municipal golf courses to create sustainable ecosystems. Born and raised in Brooklyn, Jade has witnessed firsthand the growing gap between people and the land, emphasizing the urgent need for planet-positive farming practices and community-building initiatives. By implementing regenerative farming methods and educating the community on sustainable agriculture, Jade's project not only provides clean, local food and job opportunities but also fosters a deeper connection to the environment. Through this innovative approach, Jade is paving the way for a healthier, more sustainable urban future while inspiring global change in urban agriculture practices.
