my view... 3 years in from picking out framing to figuring out why basil isn't happy and everything in between. These are 24 Fork Farms and 1 Flex Acre (to the right). 1 cucumber bucket system and 1 tomato bucket system. I look down and think, hmm what more can we grow?! plenty, for sure but how creative can I get within this space. ideas are welcome! #cea #indooragriculture #hydroponics #theotherfarming #alternativefarming
