history

In 2011 Lisa Reck Burneo and Wolfgang Palme founded the City Farm Schönbrunn on the site of the historic Schönbrunn dairy farm, in the immediate vicinity of the Schönbrunn Zoo , Gloriette and the Austrian Federal Gardens . The foundation stone was laid as part of the Junior City Farmer project in cooperation with the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water Management , the daily newspaper Kurier and the teaching and research center for horticulture Schönbrunn .

City Farm's Schönbrunn location was terminated for autumn 2018. However, the City Farm was able to move to an area of ​​more than 4,000 m² in Vienna's Augarten and reach even more people there. Since there was no financial support from public authorities, a fundraising campaign was started in October 2017.  

offer

A wide range of garden education programs were offered for children, teenagers and adults. On around 4,000 square meters there was a willow room as well as student and themed beds surrounded by orchards and a fairytale forest with a sequoia tree .
