Won’t you be our neighbor?

   By becoming a Member you help us to continue our resilience, regenerative and symbiotic building endeavors to build a permanent culture in Greater Cincinnati generations to come. This includes our educational tabling, public lectures, our social media communities, educational scholarships for those in need, the creation of public forage gardens around Cincinnati, and much more. Each strand we add to our web, we know that it is laying the foundation of sustainability for our Grandchildren's Grandchildren. Your membership is supporting this on going work.

The Growing Value edible perennial nursery in Price Hill is a nonprofit nursery hosting a rare selection of regionally-tested food forest favorites. All CPI Neighbors get an additional discount on our already low prices. The more you use your membership to purchase plants, the more value you will get from it, not only in dollars, but in the food forest you’re putting in your neighborhood. It’s win-win-win for the earth, for the community, and for the continuity of our mission.

Benefits of Membership

All CPI Neighbors get a discount at the Growing Value nursery, a CPI water bottle and a CPI t-shirt ($30 value), which can be claimed on your first visit to the nursery. Members will also be added to our e-mail newsletter list to receive regular updates on permaculture happenings, advice and resources, volunteer opportunities and more. Members are invited to join our Cincinnati Permaculture Guild group on Facebook to connect with each other and share discussions, links, and resources with each other.
