This past Sunday’s FREE Urban Farming Workshop was well-attended: dozens of green thumbs perked up under the springtime sun as rooftop farmer Annie Novak talked about the benefits of growing your own food on rooftops and elsewhere.  Particularly of interest were the nuances of finding soil and space in the city, basic plant care, and container gardening.  Even the New York Times made an appearance and lauded the Eagle Street Farm’s good work.
