Vertical Hydroponic Gardening
Its hard to beat the flavor of food grown by your own labor.
Vertical Hydroponics allows a gardener to produce large quantities of vegetables in a limited amount of space.
This system connects to a houses gutter downspouts and fills during rainfall.
The natural pressure of the water within forces water out of the spigots at their base as needed.
Cross-ventilation can help cool a room during warmer months.
Green roofs can act as natural insulation all year round.
Urban livestock farming is another trend growing in cities around the world.
Today, homeowners can supplement or replace the energy grid with solar panels, wind turbines and geothermal systems.
A single solar panel could be enough to power your aeroponic garden, for example.
