First vertical rotating vegetable garden in Europe is Portuguese

FIRST VERTICAL ROTATING VEGETABLE GARDEN IN EUROPE IS PORTUGUESEThe City Museum in Lisbon is the home for Europe's first rotating vertical vegetable garden measuring six metres high, with close to 900 plants, enough to feed 40 people a day.

The idea was developed by a Portuguese startup and is the first of a project that aims to reduce the ecological footprint of food production, giving10 x higher yields, 50% less energy used, 50% less labour and using 90% less water.

"For us the most important thing is that we are growing locally. There is no packaging, transport, we do not use pesticides. The food only has to travel a few metres to reach the plate, therefore, it reduces the environmental impact and increases the nutritional value" , said Bruno Lacey, Chief Operating Officer at Upfarming.
