Diana WietechaNicole HuggardMariya Vovna
What is an urban farm?
So, why the need for Urban Farms??
The obesity in the city could be reduced by
making fresh produce available
locally
Where are best locations?
Byproducts of industrial plants
Which chemicals are toxic? Which aren’t?
What chemicals allow a plant to flourish?
What kills a plant?
What toxins and chemicals are released into the soil at certain sites of former industries
?
Keeps cost to a minimum
Students volunteer
Faculty/Experts donate time
Will history repeat?
Proper diet is a must
Helen did it, you can too
