As a brief introduction, my name is Yasmin Khan and I am currently in
my fourth and final year studying towards a Masters in Product Design
and Manufacture (MEng) at the University of Nottingham.

I am currently in the early stages of my final project with my chosen
brief of Urban Agriculture designing a product that is simple to set
up, manufacture, implement and maintain within the context of the
urban environment. As I am still at the beginning of my project I am
still not sure what direction it will take - be it fruit/veg, animals
(i.e. bee keeping or keeping chickens) or composting.

I thought I'd post on this forum and see what your views are. Do you
live in a city but still grow your own? Or do you do you grow
fruit/veg or keep bees (for instance) as a hobbie and think it would
easily transfer over to an urban environment? What do you grow? Any
views, opinions, thoughts would be much appreciated. I'm trying to
get a rounded view and not just my own thoughts.
Thanks,
Yasmin

What reason do you have for thinking urban agriculture needs any such thing?

Given that this is an international forum populated by people in many
different environments and circumstances how will you determine the
relevance of the replies?
