#citychat No. 6 : Financing an Urban Farm
Thursday, October 18, 2012

Location: https://twitter.com/search/realtime/%23citychat

October's #citychat (https://twitter.com/i/#!/search/realtime/%23citychat) is going to be a collaborative, crowd-sourced brainstorm on creative ways for small urban farms and sustainable food ventures to grow and finance themselves. One farm in particular is looking for your ideas: Concrete Jungle (http://www.concrete-jungle.org/) of Altanta, Georgia.

If you are involved in urban farming anywhere in the world, please come to this #citychat to tweet your ideas and experiences.

@MITCoLab (https://twitter.com/MITCoLab) will introduce @cjungle (https://twitter.com/cjungle), and then we'll start brainstorm. @the_curioscity (https://twitter.com/the_curioscity) will be there to moderate the discussion and ask follow up questions. @the_curioscity came up with this incredible idea for a brainstorm #citychat.

It's easy to join the Twitter chat. Just follow #citychat on Twitter from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. EST on Thursday, October 18th. Even if you don't have a Twitter account, you can watch the conversation unfold here: https://twitter.com/search/realtime/%23citychat.
