The artists of the international festival of the street skills La Strada will also be part of the party and the events on Ulrichsplatz, Ziegenmarkt and this time enrich them for the first time on Goetheplatz in front of the Bremen Theater.
What is the trend of Urban Gardening behind this trend? Urban Gardening not only experiences a real renaissance worldwide. life and freedom explains that this movement reacts to the fact that the areas of attachment in cities are increasingly scarce.

It is a trend that has a positive impact on urban development and promotes biodiversity.
successful garden projects in Bremen
An example of the bloom of Urban Gardening is the Lucie Flechtmann-Platz in the Neustadt in Bremen. There, residents decided ten years ago to transform the place into a garden project. Up beds with fresh vegetables and buckets with colorful flowers and herbs invite the neighborhood to linger. The small community, which consists of around 10 to 20 volunteers, has recently celebrated an anniversary with workshops and a flea market. Buten and inner reports that the harvest of the volunteer gardeners is reserved for the members of the project and thus creates a feeling of cohesion.
Another exciting project is the vegetable yard in the Überseestadt, where hops for the Bremen Craft beer brand "hop catchers" are grown. The last hop harvest was rather lean due to the weather, but it looks promising for the upcoming yields this year. Local agriculture shows that cohesion and innovative approaches promote the production of local food.
Solidarity agriculture has also gained a foot in Bremen. The vegetable farm Lüninghausen near Lilienthal supplies about 65 households with fresh vegetables every week, which is financed by monthly contributions. A total of around 100 households benefit from the products of the farm, which grows over 70 cultures - including beans, artichokes and crispy leaf salad.
The future of urban gardening
Last but not least, Urban Gardening is also perceived as a political movement. More and more people are recognizing the value of urban self -sufficiency and are committed to sustainable gardening. The commitment and the desire for ecological responsibility are evident in the strength of the community. Common gardening not only raises awareness of regional products, but also valuable social contacts arise.
Courage to change and a good knack for urban design are essential so that Bremen continues to bloom. Urban Gardening is an exciting answer to the challenges of modern urban development and brings people together - in colorful gardens, on the street, and at joint festivals.
