Bringing food production to the heart of the city will reduce greenhouse
gas emissions generated by transporting and importing food from
rural and suburban areas. The close proximity of the farm will
also mean more fresh food is available to reduce reliance on less
healthy frozen and fast-food.

All kinds of fruit and vegetables would be grown around the
buildings making use of every available roof, terrace and balcony.
