PF1 (Public Farm One) is an urban farm concept built with inexpensive recyclable materials such as cardboard tubes that form a continuous surface to offer space for growing plants in a crowded city.

This could be possible one of the greatest ideas of the future regarding growing plants in a city. Because there is no much space for nature, the suspended farms will turn your city in a green one.

The Queens County Farm Museum and the Horticultural Society of New York gave the plants greenhouse space and assisted with other aspects of the project. The watering system and weekly farmers’ market were created with the help of the Council on the Environment of New York.

Jane Percy, the Duchess of Northumberland, started a project that became one of the most ambitious public gardens created in Europe since World War II.

Only two thirds of the project, has been built so far, at a cost of about $86 million, most of which came from public financing and private donations.

Jacques Wirtz, a Belgian landscape architect is considered by some the modern equivalent of the designer of the gardens at Versailles.

He was hired by the duchess to design some parts of the garden.
