Urban Gardening at its Best!

Outside the second story window of an apartment building on Hampshire Street in Cambridge...


The gutters have been repurposed....

Perhaps most intriguing is the upside-down tomato plant.

  • Very cool! I'm also impressed with the veggies my neighbors manage to grow along their chainlink fences.

    It was quite nice to meet you at the Slow Food event on Saturday. Your salads were most yummy!!

  • Reeni -- I agree! I was never that ingenious when I lived in an apartment.

    Heather and Psychgrad -- I'm curious to see how they grow when the tomatoes get bigger.

    Lori Lynn -- I'm impressed with the homespun version.

    Karen -- really lovely meeting you as well.

  • Hahah that's really inspiring, though I'm sure my condo board would kill me if I were to do that on the exterior of my 7th floor apartment.
