Rooftop farming

Rooftop farming is the practice of cultivating food on the rooftop of buildings. ^[1][2][3] Rooftop farming is usually done using hydroponics, aeroponics or air-dynaponics systems or container gardens. ^[4] Besides using the already present space at the roof itself, additional platforms could possibly be created between high-rise buildings called "aero-bridges.^[5]
