On July 16, 2024, the first exchange meeting of our research project “Future Space Urban Agriculture – Innovation Area for Urban Agriculture in Hamburg Öjendorf” took place. Together with HafenCity University Hamburg, the Julius Kühn Institute in Braunschweig and the University of Kassel, we have laid the foundation for stronger networking between urban development and urban agriculture.
Together with companies from agriculture, crafts and trade, we discussed practical and sustainable solutions for economically viable production in the “New Garden City Öjendorf.” The insights gained should serve as a model for the entire Hamburg region. In the online meeting, we presented our project, the goals and the test area and gave ourselves new impulses for further cooperation in an open exchange.
We thank all participants for their dedicated participation and look forward to the next steps!
