Walnut Hills changemakers: locals come together to provide healthy food for the community
During the latest On the Ground Community Newsroom, host Kathryne Gardette spoke with four people working together to bring fresh meals to the neighborhood.
Soapbox Cincinnati and NKY thrives has published [5] On The Ground series for communities including Walnut Hills, Covington, West End, Camp Washington and Westwood. For each series, Soapbox gathered community residents, stakeholders, community councils and development organization partners to determine what stories the neighborhoods would like to tell. Our community-shaped editorial calendar resulted in some of Soapbox and NKY thrives favorite stories between 2016 and 2020. There is a genuine interest in urban communities that are often underreported and underrepresented in local media, especially during 2020, which was a year dominated by the national election, a pandemic and misinformation.
Soapbox hosted a Community Open Newsroom in conjunction with the Walnut Hills series in the winter of 2020 headquartered at Caffè Vivace. Twenty-two members of the community were guests during the Open Newsroom events which were hosted by Kathryne Gardette. The Open Newsroom closed at the start of the nationwide COVID shutdown.
