A Dayton-based organization is pushing for more homegrown food in the Miami Valley.
The Dayton City Commission approved an $85,000 investment to the Greater Edgemont Community Coalition on Wednesday. The funds will go toward the purchase of farming equipment, a greenhouse and other improvements at the Edgemont Solar Garden in West Dayton.
The Edgemont Solar Garden on Miami Chapel Road has a long history on Dayton’s West Side. Lately it’s experienced a regeneration of sorts, with partners like Central State University and Agraria in Yellow Springs joining in to support urban agriculture.
Earlier this month was National Night Out — an annual community-building campaign that promotes positive relationships between neighbors and their local police.
