The Edible Cities Network is an EU-funded project designing and implementing urban food innovations and sustainable urban planning for greener, more edible and, above all, more liveable cities.
HOW
The EdiCitNet project brings together diverse people from throughout the world to find ways of tackling urgent urban challenges – from climate change to social exclusion. To do that, we’re co-creating and testing edible, nature-based solutions in Living Labs, as well as co-developing Master Plans for Edible Cities of the future.
The main goal of the project is to build an ever-growing Network of edible city enthusiasts, all sharing information, inspiration and expertise, and collaborating to make our cities better places to live.
