Our Initiatives

Food Forests

We are excited to partner with the Cincinnati Permaculture Institute and the Cincinnati Urban Agriculture program to install three food forests in Westwood this spring! Join us for the fun and have a good time with your neighbors May 22nd, 28th and 30th 6:00-8:00pm. Email us for details and to sign up!

Spring Workshops

Spring came early to the region and we jumped in with free workshops and seed donations to build a strong network of neighbors. Thanks to those who came out to see us at the East Westwood Springfest, the Werk Road Great Park walk and the Westwood Branch Library.

These workshops were funded by a grant from Westwood Works and we are so grateful.

Native Plant Grove

The seeds have been sown and we have our hopes set on a field of sprouts in the coming weeks. These locally collected seeds spent the winter in the cold dark and with some TLC will grow into gifts for our community; sustaining our ecology and our health. Stay tuned for updates!
