Abstract
The district of Bad Cannstatt in Stuttgart, Germany, has multiple interconnections with productive landscapes, from historical allotment gardens, the cultural heritage of wine production and agritourism to pioneer community garden projects. This research developed a strategic plan for the district through the analysis of four main aspects of the district: spatial, socioeconomic, legal and environmental. Moreover, the research was complimented through a survey with local residents and stakeholders to understand the extension of their interest in the implementation of new Urban Agriculture projects in the district. Furthermore, a strategic plan was developed, and a set of goals and milestones were defined according to each phase of implementation. The primary outcomes from the study suggest that the district has the potential to become a model area for edible green infrastructure in the state. In addition, it was possible to infer from the analysis that the interest in increasing productive landscapes in the district can be a turning point for future sustainable regional development and urban policies.
