Refarm the City is a new wiki and a blog that seeks to provide open software and hardware for urban farmers. Want to design an urban farm? Refarm the City is building a tool for that:
This is an incipient project that cries out for participation: The resources available on the wiki are all promising -- covering topics from how to design a farm to building an organization to buying equipment and censors -- but the content is underdeveloped. So if you have urban agricultural tools to share, please do visit the wiki. But if you're just starting out, I suspect it will be well worthwhile for you to follow its growth.
Discovered via the City Farmer, another terrific resource.
We’re becoming more of an urban planet now. More than half of us live in cities – thus if we want local food, we need to grow more of it in our cities. We have the city trash such as –recycled items like plastic bottles, water dispensers or construction pallets that can be used to make planters. Thanks for providing good information for those starting out!
