Planted Detroit opened in 2018 on Mt. Elliott in Detroit, using technology to create an artificial environment to grow food year-round.

Unless new investment is found, produce will be donated, 70 employees will be laid off, and it will close next week.

A #VerticalFarm is to be built in my area. Which I think could be one way to tackle many #environmental issues. Farms use #pesticides, too much land and if constructed locally then air miles would be vastly reduced. Reading the information published the farm will be developed using renewable energy such as solar and recycled water. This could be a huge game changer. But trying to explain the benefits is very difficult, it reminds me when talking to COVID deniers and the Brexit debate.

"If you walk into a grocery store in Dubai, the spinach on the shelves will probably be from Europe—or even from as far away as the United States. Because of limited arable land and water, the United Arab Emirates imports about 90% of its food. But inside a warehouse-like building near the Dubai airport, a new vertical farm is now beginning to grow more than 2 million pounds of local leafy greens per year."

A concept to grow organic food in urban places with #hydroponics and renewable energy.

20foot Urban Farma has already small vertical farms running to grow healthy food local to avoid transportation, water loss, use of pesticides and poor working conditions.

Have a look:

Delivered another #LiverpoolHannahLinks http://hannahfestival.com/ directory to https://www.farmurban.co.uk/ last night. They're growing fresh leafy greens for Liverpool in a repurposed basement of a Victorian warehouse in their #hydroponic #VerticalFarm
