The Ohio State University at Mansfield has released a video showcasing the GrowFouth Urban Farm project.

Located about a mile from downtown, the effort has gone from community gardening to a full urban farm. Grant funding has been received from OSU.

The garden grows in high tunnels as well as in outdoor raised beds. 

The farm came about in 2019 under the direction of Matthew and Amanda Stanfield. They were guided and inspired through the participation of OSU Mansfield Professor of Environmental History, Kip Curtis.

The video can be watched here:
