Truck Farm Phoenix

Truck Farm Phoenix Truck Farm is a mobile community farm, a documentary about urban agriculture, and - a public art and

Truck Farm was born in Brooklyn, NY in the spring of 2009, when Ian Cheney set out to plant a vegetable garden in the bed of his grandfather’s 1986 Dodge pick-up truck. The mobile garden project soon grew: Ian and collaborator Curt Ellis (co-creators of “King
Corn”) took the public art project on the road, exhibiting Truck Farm at 40 schools and on the National Mall in DC. Their Truck Farm Garden

Contest, judged by food celebrities Alice Waters, Michael Pollan and Marion Nestle, inspired 65 student groups to plant creative farms of their own. Now, the capstone of the Truck Farm project has been competed: the 45-minute documentary film “Truck Farm” was released telling the story of an old Dodge, a new kind of farming, and the future of food in the American city. In coordination with the release of the film, the Truck Farm has been upgraded to a fleet status of 25 Truck Farmers across the US.
