Easy on the Skin, Easy on the Environment,™ Other area organizations and programs All of the people we talked to at these organizations were passionate about the many great projects they are involved in, and they were eager to share information about the increasing variety of projects in development. It was encouraging to see, and it is similarly encouraging to find that similar efforts are taking shape in our greater Milwaukee area — there are more efforts, programs, groups and organizations than we could hope to cover here. In addition to the programs detailed above, some of other programs and groups in the area with compatible and education-centered goals are: • Milwaukee Urban Gardens (MUG) Their mission is focused on acquiring and preserving land, mostly through negotiating long-term lease agreements with the City of Milwaukee. MUG then partners with local residents to develop and sustain community gardens.
