Me and my nikkas are buying land next year. Gonna produce some food stuffs for local places.

I did some research on urban gardens...Im not sure if you are up on this but Vertical growing helps people without a lot of land (or any fertile soil) to still grow gardens.





Shipping containers can cost you as low as 2500 - 5000.



There are DIYs for the portable farm. There are some DIY videos on how to make your own tower too or you could buy one.

:whoo: What year you graduate breh

Home definitely could use some quality food options. I was home for two months in May and June and every time I visit it's crazy how a lot of major businesses uptown are drying up. The shopping center with the K-Mart near Denbigh is pitiful, but I remember growing up they had Pharm-Mor, Discovery Zone and all kinds of stuff.

A lot of that stretch of Warwick Blvd is turning into a mish mash of a lot of ethnic business, but none or few of them are black owned.

Yeah they really are building those areas. It's clear that it will look a lot different when those areas really start to take off. I remember when City Center was pretty much just a fountain. I graduated 04.
