Riverdale Neighborhood House began in a greenhouse when Grace Dodge created a lending library for local workers. In April 2021, RNH dug up and transformed 3,000 square feet of concrete into the Food & Farm Hub.

Made up of a teaching garden, community fridge, and community gathering space, the Food & Farm Hub is a space for all neighbors. Through educational programs and community outreach, the Food & Farm Hub is dedicated to building a more equitable food system— one that balances the immediate food, health, and economic needs of neighbors with the long-term demand for community resilience.

Join Emma Pollack, Director of Community Engagement & Development to learn more about this amazing space.
