design: window plants

We've had so much interest in our screen of plants and we've really enjoyed talking about the methods to create this beautiful, useful, delicious art, well at least the first fifty times it was fun to discuss. My point is, a huge amount of interest has been generated, and we are so humbled to have had so many people walk away from our park, saying, "I'm inspired..." "I'm gonna make one of those" "How Clever!"

One author, Jaymi, on TreeHugger has this to say link-to-awesome-article.

One of our members had the idea for a plant wall, but we figured out the specifics using the instructions created by windowfarms.org.

Many of you at West Coast Green were able to activate this year's theme, "You Are Brilliant," by sharing your dream design idea at our Park(ing) Day Park.

As promised, we have made these ideas available for all to see! Sharing your ideas is the first step to making them a reality.
