“For the fourth year One Seed Chicago is uniting Chicago gardeners,” said Ben Helphand, NeighborSpace Executive Director. “By planting a common seed, backyards, windowsills, community gardens and balconies across the City will be linked together in a season-long celebration of urban gardening and local eating.”
This year One Seed Chicago will also partner with Chicago chefs, foodies and garden bloggers who will provide you with recipe ideas for each of the candidates. Starting next week, original recipes featuring the candidates will be posted on the web site. If you would like to participate by providing a recipe send an email to ramon@onseedchicago.com
