URBAN AGRICULTURE TRADE SHOW: May 1-3, 2015, Rockwell Tent, Makati

This used to be an idle vacant lot in Marikina City. Now it is very productive with lettuce and other veggies grown the SNAP hydroponics way.

AGRICULTURE Magazine of the Manila Bulletin is staging an Urban Agriculture Trade Show on May 1-3 at the Rockwell Tent, corner of Estrella St. and Rockwell Center in Makati.

The event aims to promote the trend that is becoming increasingly popular in urban areas like Metro Manila, i.e., growing food crops wherever it is possible no matter how limited the space.

Theologian Hans Urs von Baltahsar caught this point: ‘Wastefulness is the original Christian attitude …the entire Passion occurs under the sign of this complete self-wasting of God’s love for the world’

Go and do likewise…
