Urban Organic Gardens in Cuba

Check out this clip from the BBC's Around the World in 80 Gardens (2008) that introduces the urban organic food gardening revolution in Havana, Cuba. It would be nice to see these types of projects proliferate and flourish in cities around the world, bringing fresh food to populations that have little access to such. It could also cut into fuel costs that are incurred by getting produce into the cities in the first place. Projects like these begin to address a multitude of issues in a surprisingly simple and very real way.



I came across this video on LINKS: the International Journal of Socialist Renewal - an interesting site worth perusing.
