Video: Center for Urban Agriculture Remix

Watch this and other videos on the official Mithun podcast (iTunes). Other formats: MP4 (iPhone), YouTube , Vimeo, Facebook.
Last week in the Greenbuild 2009 panel Urban Food Systems: From Vertical Agriculture to District-level Food Strategies, Mithun systems ecologist Critter Thompson and his co-panelists discussed urban food systems and the role food production, distribution, consumption and recycling plays in helping to shape sustainable urban communities. He also spoke about the Center For Urban Agriculture – a conceptual high-rise net-zero vertical farm Mithun designed for the Cascadia Green Building Council’s 2007 Living Building Challenge.
A few conference-goers were hoping for more information on CUA so the Mithun video team provided an update that includes more on community impact and urban food production (above).
