What We're Creating:
We will be building Organic Rooftop Farms in the Sydney CBD on top of commercial roofspace. We are currently sourcing the ideal rooftop space within the CBD suitable to harness the sun whilst being able to support the weight of the structure. Our farms will
be working in conjunction with Homeless Youth & Homeless Charities to provide a rehabilitation program for Homeless Youth through our rooftop farms. They will learn healthy eating skills & how to take care of the farm. They will undertake a hard work ethic
through daily farm work whilst developing a passion for life & to return into society.
The Farms will also be open to educate school students on healthy eating whilst hearing the stories from the homeless youth working on the farm.
What We're Producing:
The produce that is harvested will be sold to restaurants & organic markets in the local area whilst donating a portion to help feed those less fortunate & facing difficult times. Every body needs access to fresh fruit & vegetables regardless of their financial
situation. Through research it is proven that a healthy lifestyle & mind is only available when we have access to fresh fruit & vegetables as part of our standard diet not when we can afford to eat them. We will support surrounding charities in the supply
& distribution of the produce.
Where and How:
The farm will be situated on approximately 5000sq metres of land allowing us to have plenty of area to showcase the farm to many diverse groups to help educate society where & how it all comes together.
The farm will be use state of the art technology so we can minimise the impact of the farm on the environment & overseas studies show that a Rooftop Farm has a beneficial factor on the environment by redirecting Storm Run Off & reducing the overall heat
that is produced in to the atmosphere by the building effectively reducing the carbon footprint of the building.
