Moah's ark

Moah's ark moah's ark is an urban microfarm, aka a big garden, in chicago's rogers park neighborhood. this started out mostly as a retirement plan.

well, garden, orchard, hen house, permaculture....

the ark is a former neighborhood eyesore, now being transformed into a sustainable "farm". a plan for active retirement full of good food and like minded friends. any money would be gravy. it quickly exploded into a mission. we focus on permaculture both in our plantings, in our soil building and in our choices of crops. we are a large scale hugl

ekultur project. it is our belief that this soil building and water conservation technique could have wide application in reclaiming vacant land and rebuilding brownfields. we also believe that building hugelpiles, instead of trucking and chipping landscape waste on this project saved an enormous amount of pollution and greenhouse gases. this method will result in rich soil for decades. since our end goal is a plot that provides food with minimal human input. we hope to be a model of a stable, self supporting food ecosystem and permanent home for wildlife and the community. moah's ark is the work of 1 woman- mo cahill.
