Tour of Obodo Greengrocer $ Urban Farm Collective
April 5 @ 9:30 am - 10:00 am
Obodo is the IGBO word for both “city” and “community“
The Igbo people are one of the largest and most industrious ethnic tribes of Eastern Nigeria. They believe turning a region into a community takes active and ongoing neighborhood involvement.
Join us as we tour the Obodo Greengrocer $ Urban Farm Collective!
Under the guidance of their local executive directors, they offer strategic solutions for community problems, funding opportunities for service providers and grassroots leaders, and support for the people of these beautiful neighborhoods who have long been overlooked, marginalized, and oppressed.
“More grows in the garden than the gardener sows.” – Spanish proverb
Since Obodo’s creation, its focus has been creating stability for individuals and marginalized communities by giving neighbors the tools, support, and education they need to thrive. The Urban Farm project is essential to this mission. Located within the Historic Westside and two years in the making, they have always understood green spaces’ power as a growth catalyst.
