Visit the City Green Farm Eco-Center
A Place for Learning and Growing!
The City Green Farm Eco-Center is a hub of agricultural and environmental education and recreation. It is a model of sustainable, community-based urban farming, and a vibrant, living example of food production in harmony with the ecosystem. Here you will find two acres of sustainable vegetable production, as well as a Learning Farm and City Green’s offices. Here at the Farm Eco-Center, we host educational programs, job and volunteer opportunities, farm stands, educational programs, and a wide range of events
The City Green Farm Eco-Center will be closed the week of August 26th. We will re-open on Monday, September 2.
All those who oppose the variances for the storage facility should attend the Clifton Board of Adjustment Meeting on Wednesday September 4 at 7pm at Clifton City Hall.
