Akron High Tunnel (Hoop House) Initiative

The main goal of the Urban Agriculture is to spread awareness of quality local gardening, farming, food production and sustainability in the city of Akron. As part of this goal, we hope to raise the standard of quality food options at the University of Akron and create a network with other neighboring schools. To achieve these goals, we have started a community garden on campus and we are raising funds with the goal of implementing a seasonal extension of food cultivation through methods such as a solar greenhouse. We see the local production of quality healthy food as a means to address a current issues ranging from air pollution, waste management to unemployment. We also see food as an important catalyst to create unity and raise consciousness among the different cultures that comprise the University of Akron and the surrounding neighborhoods. Our model is the “Venus Project”
