Grocery store prices are constantly on the rise. There are kids and elderly folks in our community who are going or not getting healthy food. An increasing amount of people are becoming food insecure and our best way to combat these issues is to think and produce food locally by collaborating with our neighbors. The Seymour Park Food Forest proves that a community can come and work together to produce its own food in an effort to increase food security.

In the future, we envision Seymour Park being a template to create more sustainable community food forests for Brown County and a place for educational events such as walks, planting days, or cider making and canning classes.
