Food producing cities aren’t far away, but we need a catalyst. We are here to connect, enable and amplify the change out there.
The Sustainable Urban Delta Foundation was established to inspire megacities to make choices that open the door to healthy and sustainable urban growth. A crucial element of our approach is the production of local, healthy and fresh food. This can either be done inside cities or on undeveloped agricultural land surrounding cities, known as green belts. We aim to be the catalyst and the connector in order to create a better future.
The challenges megacities face are multi-facetted. And so are our solutions:
By telling stories that matter, we aim to inspire urban developers and engaged citizens
By including food production in urban planning, we provide the missing link, enabling urban developers to make impact
Based on our decades of experience, we help (mega)cities become food producing Sustainable Urban Deltas

In order to show how urban environments can be transformed, we help city governments, organizations and citizens to create tangible results.
The world is urbanizing at a rapid pace. In this article, Sustainable Urban Delta founder Meiny Prins explains what metropoles around the globe can learn from the Netherlands as the first food producing 'city'.
At 80 Acres Farms, you don't find tractors, silos or even soil. Instead, the vertical indoor farm uses hydroponics to grow fresh food year round for local communities in cities.
