The New York Times has an inspiring article on Rooftop Farms in their Dining section today. In the article Marian Burros explores some risk-taking farmers who are working to make as many urban spaces as green as possible while putting more vegetables on the table.

One of the farms she looks at is actually run by a good pal and collaborator of mine Annie Novak and her partner Ben Flanner. I’ve been going up to their 6,000 sq. foot Rooftop Farm on Eagle Street in Brooklyn on their Sunday volunteer days and the progress they’ve made is quite amazing.  I’ll have a video of the farm, including an interview Ben and Annie, up soon.  But for now look below for some pictures (the farm is so much greener now) of the Rooftop Farm with the most amazing view ever.

Me transplanting!
