EUG is a woman-owned by Cincinnati resident April Pandora, who purchases and grows on restored lots in North Avondale, Clinton Springs Ave garden, Avondale, Alaska Ave garden, and a garden in Pleasant Ridge, a variety of produce organic vegetables, fruits, culinary & medicinal herbs, and microgreens.
