Eat up! - Book Review

I've been waiting for this book for about four months and it just hit the shelves Tuesday, May 14. I will now pen my shortest book review to date. Two words. Get it! If you’re into green infrastructure, urban agriculture/farming, green roofs, green walls, vertical gardening...none of the above but merely curious, this book is for you. And if you hope to get into “the business” in some capacity, it is a absolute must read.

The book sets the stage nicely by answering the what, why and when of rooftop agriculture. Stories about, profiles of, and information related to small, medium and large rooftop endeavors and their supporters can be found throughout. And there are even checklists for starting a garden, farm or large scale venture. Throw in copious end notes and a well-researched bibliography and you have great first book for a burgeoning industry.

Happy reading!
