Here are just a few of the people who make Greensgrow what it is...

Greensgrow co-founder and Chief Farm Hand, Mary Seton Corboy is a home-grown superstar right in our own backyard. Corboy is also founder of the Neighborhood Urban Agriculture Coalition (NUAC), Co-Founder of the Farmers Market Alliance and was recently named on Organic Style magazine's top 50 "Environmental Power List" in the November 2004 issue.
They call me Blanche. Blanche du Cat is my full name. I was named after a character in a famous book that I've never read. I am, after all, a cat. Cats don't read although some people think we read their minds....and then try to read ours. Blanche is French for white. I'm a black cat. My owner, who named me, is a little different that way. That would be Mary. She's not actually my owner; she's my boss. Mary is a farmer and I am a farm cat.
Erik Kintzel has many roles at Greensgrow: Fresh Food Manager and Worm Compost Instructor.
Greensgrow is THE nationally recognized leader in urban farming (don't just take our word for it...) and is open to the public from early spring through Christmas. A small but dedicated staff runs a multifaceted operation, including a nursery, a farm market, and a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program, proving that abandoned land is only abandoned if we choose to leave it that way.
