Red Hook: Home Grown

red hook
The most startling and amazing thing I've come across since moving here is the Red Hook Farm. A community initiative aimed at teaching skills to local youth this nearly three acre farm has been inconceivably wrought from an old asphalt ball court. The farm peddles its harvest at a farmer's market open from roughly June to November and supplies local restaurants like 360 with seasonal fair for its menu. I for one can attest that the greens and vegetables are fabulous.

What does anyone know about green roofs/roof gardens on brownstones? I'm curious whether anyone's gone through the process of beefing up the structure, etc.

Are there any city/state subsidies?

What about solar on the roofs?
