Urban farm in Wroclaw – what has been achieved after the first season?
We know how big a challenge this is, and we are eager to facilitate the implementation of similar solutions in our own cities. In the first season alone, we hosted interested parties from Warsaw, Krakow, Gdansk, Nysa and Rawicz, among others.

Excerpt:
In Wroclaw, the urban farm has ceased to be just a vision from EU brochures and has become a living organism that grows, reacts and teaches. This endeavor combines ground-based vegetable growing with education, job activation and climate change adaptation, while testing how feasible it is to produce food in the heart of the city. How is such an initiative born? What does an urban food system mean in practice? And can it be built through multi-stakeholder collaboration? Agnieszka Hobot’s questions are answered by Katarzyna Sokolowska from the Department of Strategy and Sustainable Development at the Wroclaw City Hall.
Agnieszka Hobot: Where did the idea to create an urban farm within the structures of the university and the city come from – what environmental, social or systemic needs were identified as the most urgent?
Katarzyna Sokolowska: In the Department of Strategy and Sustainable Development at UMW, we have been implementing environmental projects related to food for several years now. One of the first was FOODSHIFT, which started in 2020 and was funded by EU funds. It enabled us to build fruit and vegetable gardens next to schools and kindergartens.
Another project – BioCanteens 2 – showed, using the example of the French city of Mouans-Sartoux, that it is possible to go a step further and establish not only gardens, but also farms – growing vegetables on a larger acreage and using them in school kitchens. The thinking of implementing a similar solution in Wroclaw, in a way, sealed the signing of the 2022. Milan Pact, a declaration of care for the local food system from the moment it is produced until human consumption.
