Urban Farming US Video

Urban Farming is on the rise in many places where we lost farming a long time ago... Reminds me also of what I learned here in Lyon (!) that 80% of the people in Estonia either grows their own potatoes or gets them through a personal home-grower.

Free farm

More information about this particular project in this video:

"The Free Farm is an urban farm founded in January 2010. In our first year we have built a farm, grown and given away over 2,500 pounds of fresh organic produce, convened gardening and urban homesteading workshops, and hosted community, school, and religious groups."
