Abstract
This study quantitatively investigated the association between access to local food through urban agriculture and subjective well-being, physical activity, and food security concerns during the COVID-19 pandemic in Tokyo, Japan. Results showed a significant association between diverse local food access (allotment farms, home gardens, farm stands) and health and food security variables. Allotment farms were particularly strongly linked to well-being and reduced food security concerns.
