DIY Urban Agriculture Workshop

DIY Urban Agriculture Workshop

Workshop @ No-Space, June 5, 1-3 pm

With DoTank Brooklyn

Please join us at The Change You Want To See Gallery this Saturday for a hands-on urban agriculture workshop with hosts DoTank Brooklyn.  From worms to seed bombs to vertical, hydroponic, modular, low-energy, high-yield edible window farms, you’ll gain new tools to help you engage in and enhance your urban environment.

Bring curiosity, cameras, and something to write on.

ABOUT DOTANK BROOKLYN

DoTank is a public vessel for interdisciplinary exploration, engagement and enhancement of our urban environment through means outside of the formal urban planning process. We make rapid and meaningful change by exploring and testing in our laboratory: Brooklyn, NY. By catalyzing local intellectual capital, we carry out interventions meant to improve the built environment. We connect, capture, build, design, and produce, and above all else, we Do.

ABOUT WINDOWFARMS
Windowfarms are vertical, hydroponic, modular, low-energy, high-yield edible window gardens built using low-impact or recycled local materials.  They serve to empower city folks to grow food inside, year-round, and give ordinary people a way to contribute innovations toward more sustainable cities.

ABOUT SEED BOMBING

Seed bombing is where gardeners throw a “green grenade” into an empty lot filling in all those empty spots and roadside tracts of land with flowers and/or food. With this unauthorized act of participation guerrilla gardeners do the work that our cities should be paying to have done.

ABOUT VERMICULTURE
Worms!!!!  And indoor composting.
