Farm Tours at South Chicago Farm
Our Youth Corps Ambassadors and Urban Farmers offer tours of our urban farm in the South Chicago neighborhood.
Our South Chicago farm serves four primary functions: providing food, training, mentoring, and land access. Comprised of seven acres of growing space, South Chicago is our largest farm and produces the bulk of our harvests. UGC runs a variety of programming at our South Chicago farm, including Youth Corps, community gardens, workshops, farm stands, community events, and volunteer opportunities.
Green Era Campus Tours
Urban Growers Collective is taking our impactful programming to the next level with the Green Era Campus. In partnership with multiple entities, we are transforming 9 acres of brownfield in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood into a vibrant hub for green energy and jobs, fresh produce, small business incubation, educational programming, and community green space. The Green Era Campus will include a renewable energy facility, urban farm, and community education center, and will serve as Urban Growers Collective’s new headquarters.
Come see the progress we are making towards completing this ambitious project.
