Vertical Farming?  What exactly are we talking about?   Well, as our population continues to expand, our usable farm land is consumed by developments of houses, parks and schools.   With farmable land becoming more and more scarce, a new age of pioneers is emerging.   Architects, scientists and botanists are coming together to take farming to the skies.   Think about it, many space related solutions have moved vertically. Parking has grown up or down instead of out.  Rails have moved underground or into the sky. 

With the rising cost of transportation it is only making natural foods more expensive as they make the trek throughout the dense populations.  Furthermore it makes sense to bring the farms to the people.  Please keep checking back as we continue to  watch this amazing concept unfold into a reality that will undoubted improve our lives.
