Write a Letter of Support!
Let City Council know that you as a resident or neighbor place a high value on the location of the Eco Garden remaining stable, for the kids we serve.
Reasons why:
*stable "sense of place" for transient/high need population of youth
*a perfect location for Rothenberg students to continue gardening all summer
*teenage interns take pride in the garden that they have created
*priceless volunteer sweat-equity in building shelters and installing perennials
*Enhance the Green image Cincinnati wants to uphold!

Our Community United
An online petition is in the works. Watch it come together over the next 48 hours.
We really appreciate Laure Quinlivan's motion, to leave the Eco Garden at its current location, plus grant us additional space where we would grow food for our sponsored CSA program for needy families. We want to work with, not against, the City and Citirama(R) for a win-win situation, where we all come to the table, old and new neighbors, to create a vision that works for the whole community. This is an unprecedented opportunity for civic engagement. |
