The Sustainable Economies Law Center (SELC) is working with a team of
interns and volunteers to explore the legal needs of a growing urban
agriculture movement. We are developing an online Urban Agriculture
Legal Resource Library, and designing resources and presentations that
explore legal issues that relate to urban agriculture, including: land
acquisition, zoning, property taxes, land covenants, health codes,
building codes, nuisance laws, land conservation tools, and so on.
The Sustainable Economies Law Center (SELC) facilitates the growth of
sustainable, localized, and just economies, through legal research,
professional training, resource development, and education about
practices such as:
· Cooperatives
· Community-supported enterprises
· Barter
· Sharing
· Local currencies
· Intentional communities, ecovillages, cohousing
· Affordable housing and limited equity housing
· Urban agriculture
· Community-based renewable energy
· Community land trusts
· Social enterprise
· Microlending
· Local investing
· Co-op banks/credit unions
