Platte County Recorder of Deed, Christopher Wright, will be talking to us about fraud awareness.

He will be informing us on how to sign up for the county's Record Notification System to get notified if a deed or document is filed in your name, current scams that his office is seeing in Platte County and how to identify these scams.    

Cultivate KC began in 2005 as the Kansas City Center for Urban Agriculture with the goal of promoting urban agriculture — the growing of food in city neighborhoods to feed other people. In the years since, Cultivate KC has grown into a resource provider and advocate in support of the production of fresh, nutritious produce in urban areas throughout the KC metro.

Our focus was broadened in response to community needs and the rapidly changing food system. We’ve seen remarkable development in the ways people are interested in growing and accessing local food, and we’ve adapted our work to serve those changes.

In 2010 we began working with the Kansas City, MO Urban Planning Department, the city council and the mayor to pass codes that better support urban food production and access. We worked with the city to organize the first Kansas City, MO Food Summit, bringing together community leaders, city staff and elected officials to look at how the city is and should be involved in food production and access.

Cultivate KC was a partner in Get Growing Kansas City, a program launched in 2011, which put a multi-organizational team into neighborhoods to help promote and support urban farming and farm businesses and to work with communities and individuals to get food growing in their neighborhoods. We continue that work today with farmers – both as farm businesses and as programs of non-profit organizations.

We continue our work on policy issues, working as a member of the Food Policy Coalition of Greater Kansas City and independently. We’ve started new programs and helped launch new organizations. We’ve helped transform the conversation about urban agriculture in our city.

This is a centennial celebration a beacon of hope and joy for the disadvantaged and disabled children we serve at Rotary Youth Camp.
