Urban Grow-Labs

Last year KPFA radio station broadcasted a piece on an Urban Farm, revealing how common place the practice has been amongst chinese and vietnamese immigrant communities in Oakland, California. In a part of the city called Ghost Town, Novella Carpenter has for seven years squatted and farmed a plot of land. In her blog she reveals some lessons, techniques, etc to do with urban farming (both plant and animal). Some of it will be useful come spring when our Berlin Grow Lab shall spring forth :)

Here is her site: http://novellacarpenter.com/
