Those in the Windy City can easily find their way to fresh, local produce thanks to the Chicago Urban Agriculture Mapping Project (CUAMP).
This ongoing collaboration between individuals, organizations, businesses and institutions seeks to map urban agriculture and community gardens, from small residential gardens to commercial urban farms. The CUAMP administration currently consists of NeighborSpace, Advocates for Urban Agriculture and DePaul University’s Irwin W. Steans Center.
An interactive map and directory allow users to access different profiles for each producer, providing the public with a comprehensive look at urban ag in Chicagoland.
To learn more and view the map, visit cuamp.org.
