About the event
Join us at the Urban Thistle Groundbreaking to see the vision of a collective group of leaders, who believe that food is a basic human right.
The former North Casper Elementary School site, located at 1014 Glenarm, has sat empty for nearly 10 years. It holds the promise of something incredible! It's emptiness speaks to the red tape and complications involved in making the community better.
This week the celebration of a decade long dream begins.
This Wednesday from 4-5 pm, a formal groundbreaking for this project, the Urban Thistle Farm & Market takes place.
Led by a group of committed individuals and bolstered by the support of the Casper Housing Authority and it's non-profit arm, CARES, the Urban Thistle Farm will be a center point for local food access, production, and sales.
The entire facility encompasses so much more than "just" a farm.
Come see the vision and become a part of systemic change for our community.
