Gardening in the city is nothing new: Boston (and Greater Boston) residents have long been growing their own food via urban in-ground vegetable gardens, raised-bed vegetable gardens, and container vegetable gardens anywhere the sun shines (including rooftops). But urban farming is another concept entirely. It's production-level agriculture, meaning growing enough produce to supply a restaurant, farm stand, CSA, or grocery store, and it's being taken to the rooftops where there's seemingly unlimited available space.
From tips and tricks about gardening, to insights into the food industry (both local and global), to our favorite new recipes, this blog exists to tell you what’s on our mind here at Green City Growers!
