This is a tool rack prototype we made for our cart.
Archive for April, 2009
All the compartment lids on our cart have a second purpose. The middle lid, shown here, doubles as a bench.
This container holds small hooks when not in use as well as small tools or your cold drink on a hot day outside.
Canopy on cart. tube frame for canopy consists of 12 poles that connect to form the canopy structure.
This is the location of where our aquaponic system will be placed at Greensgrow Farm
We added this stand pipe to our system to experiment with dry periods for the plants.
This was one of our ideas for a way to show our graphics. Mill Creek Farm inspired this idea because they had no money for large prints. So why not do it yourself? They have many volunteers, many of whom are children, who I would think would love to paint large pictures of fruits and vegtables. It would be a way to get the community involved and when the signs are done, help promote the farm. Since it is using the same graphics system it would also link the farm with the other urban farms using the same graphics. This is one of the options on our graph.
What we need to do for our final models and presentation is unify the different ways of displaying our graphics better. By having our graph best explain each different way, whether it be a small community urban garden or an established urban farm, whether you have 10 dollars or 100 dollars to spend, you can obtain a system of our graphics to unify your farm and link it with urban farming. Our graphic system has multiple options that you can choose and incorporate your own information into, like web site, address, logo…..whatever you want. This is what we need to strongly show. This is what we have so far.
