Urban F.@.m.i.n (Urban Farming and Media Interactive Networks) has created a very unique and futuristic urban farm. The vertical farm not only serves as a means to grow plants and crops, but it also works as a functioning television station.
The TV station farm uses its media network to promote sustainable living and would educate viewers on food production and eco-friendly living.
The structure of the TV station farm is complied of pod-like towers that contain hydroponic fruits and vegetables which would be sold to markets and restaurants throughout the city.
