Campo Urbano: where the city breathes
12 March 2009 Located not far from downtown Tucson is a
place where we can all slow down a little and take a deep breath.
Campo Urbano is a place to see simple, sustainable ideas in action,
plant a garden with your neighbor or learn about yourself while spending
time with a horse.
Campo Urbano was established to provide a living laboratory for the community
to explore sustainable living concepts that are appropriate and usable
in an urban environment. The ranch offers the opportunity to;
• Develop green job skills by participating in apprenticeship opportunities
• Learn about water harvesting, gardening in arid environments, native seeds, vermiculture and composting
• Buy environmentally friendly products and locally produced produce
• Explore green technologies and sustainable living
• Engage in hands on environmental learning
• Participate in growing community crops
Campo Urbano seeks city slickers!
12 March 2009Do you have a passion for composting? Love to garden, but lack outdoor space? Campo Urbano is seeking volunteers to assist with creating a vermiculture program and a demonstration garden. If you are interested please contact us by phone at 622-3933 or by email.
