Eagle Street Rooftop Farm

I stumbled across Eagle Street Rooftop Farm and thought that it was inspirational-- doubtful that we could copy it for our community garden, but it might inspire some ideas.

On the shoreline of the East River and with a sweeping view of the Manhattan skyline, Eagle Street Rooftop Farm is a 6,000 square foot green roof organic vegetable farm located atop a warehouse rooftop in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.During New York City's growing season, the farmers at Eagle Street Rooftop Farm supply a community supported agriculture (CSA) program, an onsite farm market, and bicycle fresh produce to area restaurants.
