Farm? Allotment? Kitchen Garden? Smallholding?


A new book authored by Miami based architect Andres Duany championing the production of food in cities has been launched by the Prince’s Foundation. ('Urban Realm' here)

Prince's Foundation, Senior Fellow Andres Duany is quoted as saying:

"We will lose the campaign against climate change unless reform is conceived in a very large scale. This includes agriculture, which cannot remain the initiative of only those well-intentioned groups promoting urban gardens. Developers, those who build the human habitat, must get involved in all aspects. This book is designed to bridge modern development practice and agriculture."
