Philip van Traa on B.'s Rooftop Garden

Benny Vink & Philip van Traa

                             

Today we continued to follow Philip van Traa (Grown Down Town) as he shared his vision for the Rooftop Garden at B.: A garden that invites it’s visitors to look around the corner. And an integrated garden. There are plans for chickens, for example. In his vision they feed off the leftover food that comes from the restaurant, while they fertilize the vegetables and fruit, which in turn can be served in B.’s restaurant.
