Hosted by the New Agrarian Center and the Great Lakes Brewing Company. Held the third Thursday of every month in the Great Lakes Brewing Company Cellar. SECOND GATHERING! Monday, December 17th starting at 6pm. Topic: Gardens and Keeping Greenspace in the City
Description: This year, Cleveland set a new national standard as one of the first major cities in the United States to develop zoning to protect garden space in the city. How can urban agriculture help to address the health and aesthetics of our neighborhoods? How can urban gardens provide working greenspace that builds community and improves our local food supply? How can agriculture become a more significant part of the urban fabric, especially with so much vacant land? Come and celebrate Cleveland’s accomplishments to support urban gardening and help envision what this can mean for our city and the future of our region.
