Mayor Kasim Reed launched his Trinity Avenue Urban Farm Design Competition with a $35,000 boost from Wal-Mart.
The city will create an urban garden across the street from City Hall to produce fresh fruit and vegetable for Atlanta residents.
As part of the Wal-Mart gift, the winning designer – charged with transforming the site of the old traffic court building into a thriving demonstration farm – will receive $25,000.
The contest is open to students, educators and professionals across Georgia in fields related to urban agriculture and landscape architecture. Interested competitors must register online at http://www.trinityavenuefarm.org by Oct. 15 and submit proposals by Nov. 1.
