Each spring starting in 2006, four raised-bed gardens will be constructed and planted next to Lucky's Cafe in Cleveland's Tremont neighborhood with help from Maurice Small of Cleveland City Fresh and grant assistance provided by Cleveland Collectivo

Called the Urban Learning Garden, it connects kids in the neighborhood with an opportunity to participate in growing produce for market. Lucky's Cafe is committed to purchasing a portion of the produce. The rest will be sold at local restaurants and at City Fresh markets.

The wood for the raised bed gardens was recovered from an 160-year-old white oak, which was blown down recently in Magnolia Cemetery in Stark County.
