    The Ecologist: Urban agroforestry in Budapest Archived Message

    Posted by mack on February 2, 2019, 3:34 pm

    Degrowth cooperative Cargonomia has created an edible, organic public garden in the heart of the city.

    Our edible forest garden experiment in Budapest is part of a doctoral research project on urban agroforestry. It was constructed in partnership with Budapest’s 14th District Council and the social Degrowth cooperative Cargonomia.

    The garden opened with its first tree planting event last November. The event the result of a year’s of work in networking, cooperating with different partners and actors.

    Our goal is to bring together planners, decision makers and experts in agroforestry and permaculture to rethink the use of public spaces in the city and democratise urban agriculture through citizens initiatives and involvement.
