Double digging system

This is an Ag system in which you take out the first 30 cm of the soil and then you dig and soften the following 30 cm of soil. This will help roots to grow vertically thus you can take advantage of more superficial space. As shown in the picture, a good design of the garden will also embellish your yard while growing food for family nutrition.

Sustainable Ag Systems

These are innovative ways to grow vegetables in urban zones, taking advantage of small spaces, deteriorated or unproductive soils and reducing CO2 emissions to the atmosphere while promoting local markets.
