Farm Urbana’s Edible Gardens in Los Angeles
Farm Urbana’s mission is to inspire healthy and sustainable living and empower people to grow their own food. We aim to engage city dwellers in our vision of the transformative potential of urban farming and edible gardens. The urban environment becomes a place that can sustain its inhabitants’ basic needs, and raise awareness about health, wellness, and community sustainability.
With water scarcity, food and fuel inflation, and population growth in urban environments, Farm Urbana provides families and communities an innovative, sustainable vertical growing system for urban farmers called the Tower Garden. The Tower Garden is an advanced vertical aeroponic system that provides a continuous supply of nutritious produce, on a footprint of five square feet for 20-28 plants, while using 90% less water than in conventional farming.
Established by Ruth Meghiddo in 2012, Farm Urbana offers a suite of services including consulting, design, installation, training, and maintenance to fulfill a family or community’s food growing needs. We work with clients throughout Los Angeles and Orange County to utilize available growing space to the fullest, whether it’s a rooftop, patio, balcony, courtyard or communal space. When grounds are available, we may also propose urban permaculture farming for the whole community to enjoy. These two systems can be used in small individual dwellings, larger communities, and commercial applications.
