Sara Continenza and Food Strong's Big Project, The Superior Farm

Send us a text Join us as we wrap up 2024 with community leader and food sovereignty advocate Sara Continenza. Sara is the founder and executive director of Food Strong, a non-profit connecting kids with food since 2016. Sara and her staff work with the Cleveland Municipal School District and other inner-city schools to provide hands-on learning experiences in gardening, nutrition, and entrepreneurship. Recently, Food Strong"s mission to educate, empower, and cultivate health through fresh foods just got a significant boost. Community Greenhouse Partners recently gifted them a three-acre farm site on Superior Avenue in Cleveland"s east side. The property includes a historic house, church, food forest, farmland, and hoop houses that Food Strong is transforming into its Superior Farm. This neighborhood hub will support food sovereignty, climate resistance, and community connections. An estimated $5 million is needed to realize her vision for the property, along with the help of thousands of volunteers and neighbors. This extraordinary project is urban restoration at its best, feeding bodies, minds, and souls. Join us as we speak with Sara about this project, the wisdom of kids, Food Strong"s work, and ways you can help.  Our Guest: Sara Continenza, Founder and Executive Director of Food Strong Learn More: About Food Strong About The Superior Farm Fix-Up Project Donate to Food Strong"s Farm Project Become a Supporter Volunteer Evenings Food Strong"s Programs Follow Food Strong on Facebook and Instagram Follow us: https://www.facebook.com/ecospeakscle https://www.instagram.com/ecospeakscle Contact us: hello@ecospeakscle.com
