A new farm has been opened in Compton, California. Plenty Compton Farm is an indoor structure that generates up to 350x the yield of a conventional farm per acre using 'living walls' of salad plants. Each wall is nearly two stories high, allowing them to produce 4.5m lbs of greens annually.

If any of my contacts know someone who might be interested in this - a fantastic opportunity to research the impact of green walls in education settings: https://lnkd.in/ejW3b5-Z

I've just been asked a question that I have never heard before whilst giving a presentation on #GreenWalls. Maybe some of my connections based outside of the UK can answer...

What risk assessments are in place relating to green walls being a habitat to venomous #snakes?

That's an aspect of #biodiversity that I hadn't previously considered - I live in a country where the most dangerous wild animal is a swan!

Anyone have any experience of that?
