Prinzessinnengärten is a new urban place of learning
It is where locals can come together to experiment and discover more about organic food production,
Imagine a future where every available space in big cities is used to let new green spaces bloom. Green spaces that local residents create themselves and use to produce fresh and healthy food.
Nomadic Green launched Prinzessinnengärten (Princess Gardens) as a pilot project in the summer of 2009 at Moritzplatz in Berlin Kreuzberg. A site which had been a wasteland for over half a century. Along with friends, activists, and neighbors, the group cleared away rubbish, built transportable organic vegetable plots, and reaped the first fruits of their labor.
