Mission statement:
Four Seasons City Farm is committed to building a sense of community and renewing our urban neighborhood by beautifying our area, by turning abandoned lots into gardens, by creating a self-sustaining and cooperative food production sytstem, and by deomonstrating a sense of hope, belonging and spiritual renewal through sharing the garden work. We work with neighbors of all ages, especially sharing the gardens with children in youth programs from neighborhood agencies throughout Columbus.
An email address for Leslie Markworth, the director, is on our Members page, if you wish to contact her to collaborate.
Currently City Farm is looking to host youth from summer programs, teaching them gardening at their sites around the city, which are mostly on the Near East side. If you know of any day camps or your summer programs or day care centers in this area, contact Leslie to discuss the possibility of field trips to the gardens!
