Food Forests
We've been planting food for our neighbors! This spring we partnered with the Cincinnati Permaculture Institute to install three food forests in Westwood. Check out these growing gardens on our garden map (below).
These projects were made possible through funding from the Cincinnati Urban Agriculture program.
Summer Programs
This summer we partnered with Little Schoolhouse in the Woods and Cincinnati Urban Promise to share free lessons on natural resources and urban agriculture with their summer campers!
​
These programs were funded by a grant from the Greater Cincinnati Foundation.
Seed & Native Plant Donations
We love sharing seeds and plants with our neighbors. Find us at a local community event, visit the Westwood Branch Library or email us to request seeds. Have seeds or plants to share? Let's swap! Get in touch by sending an email to: westwoodgrows@gmail.com
​
The native plants we donate are homegrown in our own native plant grove which was made possible by funding from Westwood Works.
