I started a discussion group to generate ideas, assess feasibility and approach to urban farm in South Orange on this site and on http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=1252707
Inspiration come from both near and far.
- Glass houses of Amsterdam.
- City Brick Urban Farm in our neighbor city of Newark, NJ, http://brickcityurbanfarms.org/
- Union, NJ Whole Foods herb green house
- Growing Power, Milwaukee’s Only Urban Farm http://www.cgin.coop/node/5869
- Vertical Green House: http://www.verticalfarm.com/
High level objectives:
- Should not cost tax payers anything.
- Service community, local retail and restaurants.
- Provide a learning experience.
- Fit well in suburban setting. Let’s face it, neatness is part of suburban ethos. Good management is critical.
- Service community 365 days per year.
- Be living example of sound environmental practice.
