What is this Urban Gardening project the Alderman is talking about?

Recently in Alderman Lyle's monthly newsletter there was a reference to an urban gardening/aquaponics project she is working on bringing into the ward. Newsletter

There are currently several urban gardens in the city with the closest one to Chatham at Jackson Park. The Alderman has not released the details on the size of the project but here is a video of a project in Milwaukee which is the prototype they are following...



This project appears to be the cornerstone of a solution to several problems recently discussed in the community. The issue of "Food Desert", jobs, and economic development. Also, it will demonstrate to the "Green community" that this community is open to Green industry companies.
