Farm on Ogden

The Farm on Ogden supports and sustains a healthy urban community by bringing food, health and jobs together in one location. The multi-use facility is a project of the Chicago Botanic Garden's Windy City Harvest urban agriculture program and Lawndale Christian Health Center. It consists of greenhouse, aquaponics and fish hatchery operations, a teen-led youth farm, commercial and teaching kitchens and a year-round community market space. Farm on Ogden also runs Veggie Rx, which provides fresh produce packages, nutrition education and cooking lessons from the Chicago Partnership for Health Promotion.
