DETAILS:
Opened in 2018, the Farm on Ogden supports and sustains a healthy urban community by bringing food, health and jobs together in one location. The adaptively reused multi-use facility is a project of the Chicago Botanic Garden and Lawndale Christian Health Center (LCHC). It consists of greenhouse, aquaponics, and fish hatchery operations, a teen-led youth farm, commercial and teaching kitchens, and a community market space. The Farm on Ogden is managed in partnership by LCHC and Windy City Harvest, the Chicago Botanic Garden’s urban agriculture education and jobs-training initiative to help build a local food system, healthier communities and a greener economy.
VISITOR EXPERIENCE:
Visitors will be provided with a map to lead them through self-guided tour stations. There will also be interpretive signage and staff near the designated stations to share more information. The first 150 visitors will receive violas.
