Gardens Under Glass is an urban Eco Village that will serve as a center for agricultural production, environmental education, and Green retail opportunities. Currently, there is no other facility designed to improve the overall ecological urban landscape of Cleveland. This model will help support studies that suggest there could be enough available space in rural Cleveland to grow all of the cities fresh vegetables without the need for importation. The combination of agricultural production, health related retail, hydroponic and alternative power development education will make this a destination for the environmentally conscious. The implementation of these innovative technologies will make this center fully self-sustaining.
