What we do:
We teach, design, and implement environmental techniques in organic agriculture, water management, restorative landscape technologies and sustainable design, and food producing green roofs, for schools and community groups in Chicago. We have a particular interest in areas such as urban agriculture, green infrastructure, and material re-use/recycling.
UHC enables citizens to make direct environmental and social change. We provide “hands-on” training in environmental issues and urban agriculture through school programs, youth and adult workshops, internships, volunteer days and presentations at our teaching farm and other sites.
