Event Details

Urban agriculture goes beyond growing carrots in the city. It gives people a sense of community and works to further connect people to where their food comes from. We invite you to join us for a quaint tour that explores a holistic view of urban agriculture by showcasing both what we are growing and the community we are supporting.

Johnnie Mae Farm

Johnnie Mae Farm provides fresh vegetables at affordable prices to the residents of Renaissance Pointe and the surrounding neighborhoods on Fort Wayne's southeast side. The property boasts a state-of-the-art teaching kitchen and three-quarters of an acre of farm in the back. All produce is grown using a responsible land ethic and organic practices. A variety of fresh produce grown on-site is available to local residents on Fridays from 2:00pm-6:00pm. Possible items for purchase include collard and mustard greens, okra, herbs, radishes, tomatoes, zucchini, green beans, peppers, broccoli, cabbage, Brussels sprouts and watermelon.

Johnnie Mae Farm is made possible because of a partnership between the City of Fort Wayne’s Office of Housing & Neighborhood Services (OHNS) and the Purdue Extension - Allen County Office.
