Urban Agriculture


The Madison Area CLT has been involved in urban agriculture since 1995, starting with our trail-blazing project at Troy Gardens.

Food Forest Program
Madison Area CLT has two exciting edible forest initiatives in the works. First is a series of workshops of growing food in forests -- check out this link for more information. And second, we are offering grants to our homeowners who would like to start growing food in their own backyards -- click here for more information on homeowner grants.

Urban Agriculture Ordinance
In 2009, Madison Area CLT played a leadership role in convening a working group that developing the urban agriculture language for the new Madison zoning code. Click here for the website we put together for the working group.
