I love this short doccie looking at how NYC is working towards bringing back food production back into the city, an ideal that is close to my heart as a vocational ‘Urban Farmer’.
I grow food in urban farm lots and support my community through a weekly urban farmers market I co-founded and provide local eateries with a selection of fresh, picked daily old world/heirloom vegetables.
The Mail & Guardian ran a feature on me this week, read it here.
If you are keen to try your hand at growing your own edible garden take a look at this short video I did for eXpresso Show.
I would love to see something like this on every rooftop in Cape Town (may need added wind breakers!)
Wind breakers or tie downs! As you can see in NYC they use a lot of bamboo. I wish more companies would be progressive in making use of their rooftops for greening, esp. for food production.
