New Alleycat Acres farm is shaped like a bike wheel

From Alleycat Acres

They call it a “sprocket garden.”

Inspired by the wonderful relationship between bicycles and urban agriculture, farming collective Alleycat Acres has designed their newest farm (on MLK just north of Cherry) after a bike wheel. A central hub plot forms the center, and the other plots branch out like spokes.

It’s just a baby garden still. The group broke ground less than a month ago, so it is still taking shape. If you want to help out, there is a work party noon Saturday.
