[Communications] New to Uptown Neighborhood

[Amy Olson]

Hi Sam,

Welcome to Chicago! 

You’ve received a few suggestions from other CCGA volunteers, and I’d like to add another resource. The Chicago Urban Agriculture Mapping Project  <https://cuamp.org/#/>has many community gardens mapped and also contains urban farms, school gardens and others. You can search by address, ward, community area. People can add their project to the map, so it is updated by the public. There are some amazing gardens and urban farms in the Uptown area, check it out!

Happy Spring,
Amy
