Growing local


There is a trend right now in Brooklyn that is the coolest thing ever and it's rooftop farming! For decades people have been trying to recreate nature within their urban landscape by creating rooftop gardens and it looks like new yorkers are now more and more educated and ready to take it to the next level to actually grow their own veggies and green food.  We all know the benefits of buying and eating local.  Definitely a step in the right direction for urban life.
Not to mention that rooftops gardens and farms are such an eye candy for a city like ours!

If you wish to visit a (rather large) public rooftop farm, here is the list of the 5 top urban farms in NYC.

We just said goodbye to the first heatwave of the summer. 
The interesting thing about heatwaves in New York is that you will find open spraying fire hydrants widely throughout the city, making it the perfect effect for photographers over the years to capture street life.   So pretty, and cooling if you dare jumping right in them !
