Business/Life idea for me and the bro.

1. A BRILLiant Concept…

2. New Business Proposal:
Create an Urban, Sustainable, Organic MicroFarm/Restaurant.
Urban Micro-Farm/Vertical Garden/Restaurant OASIS.

5. What’s the word on the Street?
“A blooming trend: Gardens are
sprouting up at restaurants
across the country.”
“Climate Change and
Agriculture: Biodiverse
Ecological Farming Is the
Answer, Not Genetic
Engineering.”
“Aquaponics Explained: Feeding Your
Fish.”
“A growing hobby: Community gardens come to life in spring”
“The Rise of Urban Farming
Grow fruits and vegetables in city
towers? Advocates give a green thumbs
up.”
“Organic food sales have increased by 20% annually since 1990.
Consumers trust organic food and are concerned about health risks
and environmental impacts of conventional food production
methods.”
“Fresh and Local: The Farm Movement.”

6. Turn-Table in Helsinki, Sweden is the only place I have found
that is doing something semi-similar to what I'm talking about…
