Got an itching green thumb but nowhere to scratch it? Sounds like you need to join in on another mob happening in town. Crop Mob is a group of “young, landless, wannabe farmers” who gather with the more experienced of local farmers to build and empower a sustainable community in Atlanta. And it’s open to all motivated farmers from all walks of life, regardless of experience, background or age.

Working side by side and moving en masse around the city, Crop Mob ATL is “mobbing” just about any green space that needs it - from rundown farmlands and parkside patches in need of some sprucing, to restaurant gardens that are doing their part to grow the local food movement. The mob supports all things green and good and local.... And we’re happy to see such a mob making Atlanta a better place to live and eat.
