About City Fresh

Farm to City

City Fresh is a joint initiative beteween the New Agrarian Center (NAC) and Ohio State University Cooperative Extension.

The goal of City Fresh is to build a more just and sustainable local food system in Northeast Ohio.

City Fresh seeks to meet the needs of both urban and rural communities by improving access to fresh locally grown food for urban residents and marketing opportunities in the city for local farmers.

The City Fresh program impacts the local food system through the development of neighorhood food centers, nutrition education, urban market garden training, and the cultivation of direct farm to business connections.

City Fresh includes a wide range of community partners, including the City of Cleveland Health Department, Heifer International, Ohio Farmers Union, the Great Lakes Brewing Company, the Clark-Metro Community Development Corporation, the Urban Community School, and the Cuyahoga County Planning Commission.
