WHAT IS URBAN FARMING 035 (UF035)

As a residents' initiative, we are the largest green family in Hilversum with the aim of bringing people and nature together and allowing them to grow and flourish.

We stimulate the emergence and growth of green spaces in the city where people can socialize, engage in social activities and develop. We give all Hilversumbers the opportunity to be actively involved in green, health, nutrition and sustainability.

WHAT ARE WE DOING

In concrete terms, this means that we are transforming unused areas in Hilversum into blooming vegetable gardens. In our gardens people come into contact with each other, they can grow their own fruit and vegetables and teach young and old how vegetables are grown. All kinds of fun activities are organized, such as cooking with the harvest and workshops growing vegetables. We also teach (school) children in our vegetable gardens, so that all children have the opportunity to be involved with nature and know where their food comes from.

About 200 people are actively involved in our organization, spread over 17 locations. We are represented in 7 of the 8 neighborhoods of Hilversum. Every year we reach more than 1,200 school children with our curricula.

WHO WORK AT URBAN FARMING 035

We are an informal foundation. With a board, a core team for the daily ins and outs, a Green Council and many volunteers. There are (partly) paid employees (part-timers), but mainly volunteers.
