Urban Garden Magazine | Growing UP in Manhattan

I stumbled on this magazine the other day at B&N. If he can create a hydroponic garden on a rooftop, we can certainly figure out year-round plants...

Urban Garden Magazine | Growing UP in Manhattan: "Urban Garden Magazine pays a visit to the rooftop of Bell Book and Candle – New York’s first hydroponic rooftop-to-table restaurant!

New York restaurateurs, John Mooney and Mick O’Sullivan, could easily use one of many farmers’ markets in the Manhattan area to keep their pantry stocked with fresh produce. Instead, however, the industrious pair decided to keep things even closer to home by setting up a hydroponic garden on the roof of their soon-to-open restaurant, Bell Book and Candle. John and Mick’s vision is to provide the majority of what appears on their customers’ plates directly from the rooftop, with all the freshly-picked produce lowered by a pulley system straight into their kitchen.
