About the Program:
A Mobile Garden is a tool that allows you to grow food even if you don't have a place for a typical garden. Repruposing retired shopping carts and outfitting them to be productive garden plots allows you to follow the sun, go to the water, move your garden with you, take it in an elevator, move it inside on a cold night, and go for a walk with your neighbors. Best of all, a mobile garden gives you access to the freshest, most local food available- YOURS! Mobile Gardens in our schools are made possible by a collaboration between North Coast Food Web and Oregon State University Extension.
