How will it work?

People will grow using what materials?

(Reused cement bags) (gutters) (scrap metal)

Looking at what if projects, how they work in urban areas.

Audiance

Community who are the people growing;

(Neighbours, friends, couples, single, family, kids, retired)

Consider if people go on holiday for 6 months, the community will look after the crops

Outcome

After the scheme is up and running community can blog about experiences

Potential website and blog/forum for advice on growing in your local area.
