Take a look at these pictures and feel free to comment with other places you have seen this, as these will only strengthen my position of wanting to start this farm. Have a great day!

Urban Farm Chicago: October 2009
http://urbanfarmchicago.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 21, 2009. Sweetwater Growers, Inc. Just doing a little research on the Urban Farm idea and came across Sweetwater Growers, Inc. They hydroponically produce basil and microgreens, which they then sell to Whole Foods. It sounds as though they can't grow it quick enough, with Whole Foods taking it all off their hands as soon as it harvested. I may have to discuss with this guy and see how viable it has been for him cost wise. Will keep you all posted as to what I find out.

Urban Farm Chicago: Systems...
http://urbanfarmchicago.blogspot.com/2009/01/systems.html
Thursday, January 29, 2009. So, I have spent the past few evenings trying to narrow down systems that are worth researching more in depth. I have seemed to find a few that make sense. The big question is how much a lighting system will cost, as we want to be able to grow year round. I am guessing that this is going to be one of our bigger costs. We shall see. Comment with any ideas or suggestions! July 28, 2009 at 6:03 AM. Are you still pursuing the Urban Farm in Chicago? View my complete profile.

Monday, January 26, 2009. I have decided to try and tackle my next entrepreneurial activity. I wanted my next business to be successful, b.
