Cleveland Roots is an organization based in the Clark-Fulton area that provides access to healthy, locally grown produce, and offers educational opportunities around growing, preparing and eating healthy food. It maintains a pair of community gardens on the west side of Cleveland and grows organic vegetable, fruit, berries and honey on a 17-acre farm in Richfield as well.
Now it’s peak planting season, and Cleveland Roots is sharing some of its wealth with home gardeners at its annual plant sale, taking place at its Clark-Fulton Greenhouse at 3257 W. 41st Street. There you’ll find heirloom vegetable and herb plants ready to drop into your own garden. You can also purchase flower basket, compost and worm castings. They’ll have more than a dozen types of tomato plants from the familiar (Amish Paste. Better Boy, Roma) to the exotic (Marmalade Skies, Gin Fiz), an equally large number of peppers ranging on the Scoville scale from Bell to Trinidad Scorpion, several varieties of eggplant, collards, lettuce and okra
Profits from the sales support the organization’s mission to expand access to healthy food in Cleveland.
