As one of the popular topics on the blog I though we could take a second look at Multi-Storey Gardens. The  last part of the video above is also part of  three short films made by Christian Aid in Kenya on a variety of topics.

It has even been adapted for commercial production. How do you think you can apply this technology in agri-production here in Trinidad and by extension the Caribbean?
