Overview
Vertical farming is a logical and effective way of growing vegetables, fruits and herbs in urban areas not only for personal needs, but also as a small commercial farm.
This Gardening Vertically course from Warnborough College has been developed as a starting point for:
- Home Gardeners seeking to grow their own food
- Urban Farming start ups seeking to optimise the production from limited space
- Interior and exterior landscapers, seeking to create greener, healthier spaces in residential, commercial and public places.
It is possible with a little know how and planning, to create a profitable urban farm. Walls of plants can be used to transform courtyards, building interiors and stark urban landscapes; improving air quality, reducing temperature extremes and enhancing human wellbeing in many other ways.
