The Farm Nearby Details
We are an Urban Farming company that specialises in growing a select group of high value, quick growing crops on rented or borrowed land. We also partner with a number of farms that produce organic crops.Each farm is strategically positioned in the heart of an Urban community & by using SPIN farming techniques with intercropping strategies, we are able to achieve multiple cuts/harvests from each crop whilst still increasing the overall number of plantings within each bed.The Farm Nearby is a great example of how productive & profitable urban agriculture can be.We believe in sustaining a healthy environment on our farms, thats why we collect used coffee grounds from local coffee shops, which we then mix into our soil, increasing its fertility. Healthy Soil = Healthy Plants.Our goal is to Inspiree communities to rethink & change how our food system works & how we view the spaces we live in.
