Cultiva Project: school and community garden threatened with eviction in Lisbon
What's at stake
An organic farming and environmental education space in Graça, Lisbon, facing eviction.
Being defended
The continuity of a school and community garden with recognized educational value.
What's happening
The Cultiva Project occupies a plot next to Gil Vicente School, in Graça, Lisbon, where a school and community organic garden has run for several years, with regular environmental education activities for children and adults.
Rizoma Cooperativa Integral, which supports the project, was notified that the space must be vacated by September 12, 2026, as part of planned works on the site.
The public petition asks for the eviction to be suspended and for a solution that keeps the garden running, given its educational and community value, recognized by the school itself.
