Unity Unlimited aims to provide educational activities and resources to people, young and old, to foster unity and harmony within the community, the city, the state, the nation and the world regardless of race, culture or denomination and regardless of the form in which the events may be presented, including but not limited to workshops, expositions, concerts, rallies and lectures. Unity Unlimited, Inc. was granted use of two vacant acres in Fort Worth by the Trinity Regional Water District (TRWD) for the express purpose of creating an urban farm. The farm is named after Ms. Opal Lee, a longtime community and humanitarian activist in Fort Worth, and a founding member of Unity Unlimited, Inc. Opals Farm produces organic produce that will be distributed throughout area food deserts and low-income communities, helping restore health and vitality to local neighborhoods. A portion of the fruit and vegetable harvest is sold to local chefs, restaurateurs, and markets to support local farm-to-table needs and to help make the farm self-sustaining. The farm creates jobs, provides job training, and brings a spirit of entrepreneurship and self-reliance to the local community. The two available acres of arable, urban land connects food production, processing and distribution in the same space. This is basically from farm to plate; which is a win-win for the residents of Fort Worth and a model for other municipalities.
