Chicago Sustainability Leaders Network

Plant Chicago’s mission is to cultivate local circular economies.

They envision a paradigm shift in production, consumption and waste driven at the local level, generating equity and economic opportunity for all residents.

They equip people and businesses with the tools to live more sustainably through community-driven, hands-on programs and innovative research projects.

This school is committed to sustainability and offers many programs, from an innovative bio diesel club, an Eco club responsible for the school’s greenhouse, and the Mycelia project, which commits student community service hours to green projects.

Urban Habitat is a citywide program that works to demonstrate the viability of sustainable concepts and practices in urban environments through research, education, and various hands-on projects around the city of Chicago.

Utilizing local talent, new growing technologies, and a progressive entrepreneurial approach, UrbanPonics produces wholesome, fresh foods year round, right in the neighborhoods that need them.
