URBAN
FARMING ROOF

A fresh approach to growing local

A community garden with raised beds filled with various plants and flowers, a concrete pathway in the center, and a greenhouse in the background under a blue sky.

As urban density increases, so does the need to grow food locally.
The Urban Farming systems are designed to optimize fruit and vegetable growth (such as lettuce, onions, herbs, zucchini, eggplant, squash, cabbage, melons, strawberries and more...).

Features:

  • Floradrain FD40 is the ideal drainage layer for Urban Farming

  • Specially designed growing medium ZinCoblend-F provides necessary nutrients for optimal growth.

  • Depth based on the fruits and vegetables you want to grow (200 - 400 mm)
