While “locally grown food” might be a current trend, at Community Greenhouse Partners, we believe it’s the foundation of a healthier and more sustainable future. The health advantages of organic produce are undeniable, offering superior nutrition compared to mass-produced, chemically treated corporate food. As demand grows for locally sourced, organic options, CGP is committed to bridging the gap and ensuring access for everyone in our community.
Unfortunately, access to fresh, organic produce is often limited in traditional low-income urban markets due to factors like higher prices and unfamiliarity with the benefits. Furthermore, individuals in low-income situations who rely on meal programs often lack consistent access to fresh vegetables in their daily diets.
Community Greenhouse Partners is dedicated to changing this. We are a sustainable urban farm utilizing ecological design principles and community involvement to cultivate wholesome food year-round. Our mission is to provide affordable, nutritious food to our neighborhood, improving personal health while simultaneously creating valuable training, mentoring, and employment opportunities within the community. We are proud to be your greenhouse partners in building a healthier Cleveland.
CGP has already established a robust urban farming infrastructure, including one hard-shell greenhouse and five soft-shell hoop houses on our site. We’ve also implemented a cutting-edge hydroponic system, with plans to upgrade to a full aquaponic system integrating fish and vegetables, further enhancing our sustainable practices. Located on the grounds of a former Catholic Parish in the heart of downtown Cleveland, we are deeply rooted in our community. We are committed to hiring locally, growing and selling locally-grown organic vegetables at affordable prices to urban families, and educating young people about sustainability and earth science. Join us in cultivating a healthier, more sustainable Cleveland!
