Greenbelt Hospitality

Artist and fourth generation farmer Matthew Moore has teamed up with third generation restauranteur Aric Mei to launch Greenbelt Hospitality. The concept puts a working, two-acre organic farm in an urban park; couples it with an affordable restaurant serving farm to table meals; and places education and art events at the core of the complex. Any city with public park land can host this self-sustaining creative enterprise. The all-in-one location “provides a unique opportunity to learn about farming and cooking in tandem, an experience rarely seen in an urban setting.”¹ Customers get affordable, healthy food and a deeper understanding of how food that ends up on our tables. As it grows beyond its home-base in Phoenix, Greenbelt will seek places where it can complement community development efforts.
