Winter Garden and Local Food Photo Challenge @ Cultivate the City

The bitter cold of winter is now officially here, but that means spring is right around the corner!  We have a bunch of exciting announcements coming up this year, but to get things rolling for 2016 we are having a social media winter garden photo contest!  Snap a photo of your seed catalogs, indoor gardens, cold frames, or dinner made from local ingredients, share on Instagram with the hashtag #CultivateTheCity. You could win an LED Aerogarden or gift cards to our upcoming rooftop nursery and farm near H St.

Also there was this recent piece on urban agriculture in DC featuring Uptop Acres and Cultivate the City on RT America:
