from Green Arenas · host Inquisitor Media

On this Episode host Jeremy Hempy and Kim McDonald have an insightful conversation with Ursula from Food Strong Cleveland, an organization founded in 2018 by Sara Continenza. Food Strong began with school gardens and a wellness program, growing from 2 to 14 schools and building a Learning Garden at Coit Road Farmers Market, complete with rain gardens and solar spaces. We also launched initiatives like vacant lot restorations, a Mobile Farm Stand, and community classes, all aimed at increasing access to fresh food and promoting health. Their mission is to foster food justice in Northeast Ohio by building sustainable local food systems through community collaboration, empowering neighborhoods to become thriving, self-sufficient areas.Check this episode of Green Arenas on our website at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.greenarenaspod.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Green Arenas on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Green Arenas is an ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Inquisitor Media⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Original
