	~~Prinzessinnengarten~~ is an example of social and ecological urban agriculture; which plays a key role in two challenges: urbanization and food security. It can provide an important contribution to sustainable, resilient urban development, creation and maintenance of multifunctional urban landscapes.		Prinzessinnengärten is an example of social and ecological urban agriculture; which plays a key role in two challenges: urbanization and food security. It can provide an important contribution to sustainable, resilient urban development, creation and maintenance of multifunctional urban landscapes.

	The idea of ~~Prinzessinnengarden~~ came from Robert Shaw, who spent several years in Cuba, and by accident he saw people using urban wastelands to produce local food, those waste lands were given by the city to the people in different places to use them for cultivation. Beside growing vegetables and crops, they also have created places within the gardens where people could meet to socialize and learn from each other.

Beside growing vegetables and crops, they also have created places within the gardens where people could meet to socialize and learn from each other.
	After he returned back to Germany he told his friend Marco Clausen about his experience there. Although they were far from their original professions: Robert is a film maker and Marco studied history and had some experience in bars, together they developed the idea of a kitchen garden in Berlin in 2009. At the beginning it was not easy to find a piece of wasteland in the middle of the city Berlin for farming purposes and especially not for a long period of time. Therefore, they rented a piece of land and use it as long as they can, but they had to create a system that's able to move( Mobile Farm ). Plastic crates and rice bags were chosen for their new mobile system, and those two objects were suitable for the nomadic green feature, to easily transport them when they need to move to another place.

	The Prinzessinnengarten is located at the Moritzplatz in Berlin; a busy roundabout in the center of bustling Kreuzberg; it’s a public property of an almost 6000 square feet area. In summer of 2009, the two founders rented this piece of land from the Real Estate Fund Berlin. Over a thousand supporters have helped the site to grow from an vacant lot to a green open space. Without previous expertise, with little money and armed with the idea of communally used garden in the center of the city, inspired by a trip to Cuba, they began to send down the first roots of a flourishing garden between cement and rubble. About 500 different types of herbs and vegetables are growing here. A diversity of plants is growing here as well as a diversity of social relations. People of different origins and of different ages meet and exchange their knowledge and their experience.

	Their goal is to create a place of exchange and learning on issues of local and organic cultivation of food, biodiversity, sustainable consumption, the responsible use of resources and a sustainable neighborhood and urban development.
