We have seen an explosion of medium and high density housing meaning little or no yard space. In fact, people have found clever ways to grow their own produce.
Think community, vertical or balcony gardens and amazingly green rooftop spaces. Some zones and authorities are even allowing fruits and vegetables to be grown on nature strips and public grounds.
Additionally, restaurants and cafes have edible gardens on-site. It is common to see pots containing herbs and vegetables in and around their premises.
