The role of wicking garden beds in the future of foodWhat does Biofilta’s CEO Marc Noyce believe the future of food looks like? Tune into 1:24 min to find out. Using wicking beds to combine WSUD and Urban AgBiofilta is serious about changing the way cities feed themselves while putting storm water and food waste to good use. To help this happen, we have designed a household scale super productive 40m2 urban farm that captures and stores rooftop rainwater, and diverts that water into an advanced wicking garden system for food production. This approach demonstrates how cities can close loops, and re-purpose abundant storm water and food “waste” streams into valuable resources to help cities feed themselves in the process
