(15)

Icebox Urban Farm is located in the heart of the Harrisburg neighborhood in Augusta, GA, and includes a teaching kitchen, event and classroom space, intern housing, an urban garden, and a century-old greenhouse. We cooperate with other local organizations to offer a wide variety of classes, and we provide event space to host community-building events, contributing to the revival of one of the area

’s oldest neighborhoods. Our teaching kitchen provides a space that is similar to our participants’ home kitchens, with an electric stove, refrigerator, microwave and a well-stocked pantry and chest freezers. It supports our educational efforts and helps students learn what they are capable of in their own home kitchens. Our classroom has been recently renovated, and provides an educational space for about 20-30 students. Our classroom has hosted our FVRx classes, community meals, Icebox Forum, and many other individual workshops. In partnership with Augusta Locally Grown, our Teaching Garden is being built with kids in mind, but it’s a place for everyone! Contained within the grounds of our Harrisburg campus, our Teaching Garden contains many raised beds, where we cultivate seasonal edibles, a compost area, a chicken coop and run, a vermiculture area, and our “Bee School,” an interactive pollination education station. In the future, we’ll expand to include aquaponics and other fun and informative workspaces where the community can learn about sustainable urban agriculture! Icebox Urban Farm is managed by Icebox Ministries Incorporated.
