Mr Marmite - Live From The Crypt One of the best things about being able to farm in the centre of a city is the culture all around us.

How did we get such an amazing crop of leafy greens?! 🌱 As autumn rolls around, you may think home growing season is coming to an end. But growing with hydroponics means you can grow all year round! Why don't you have a go at growing your own leafy greens using this hi-tech method. You can purchase a hydroponic growing kit online and start growing your own herbs, lettuce and leafy greens from the comfort of your own home 💚 Here are our 3 top tips for hydroponics at home: 🌱 Make sure your plants get plenty of light everyday. Put your hydroponics kit in a sunny spot or invest in a growing light to help your plants thrive! 🌱 Learn your nutrient levels. You can buy nutrient solution in liquid or powder form and different crops need a different nutrient recipe so be sure to do your research first! 🌱 Make it easy on yourself - start with live seedlings. We recommend starting from a live plant instead of trying to use seeds for your first grow, saves the hassle of germination! We'd love to see your hydroponic adventures, so be sure to tag us in any photos of your indoor farms! #GreensForGood #FarmUrban #Hydroponics #HydroponicGrowing #UrbanFarming #UrbanAgriculture #FeedTheFuture #SustainableFood #VerticalFarming #ZeroWasteLiving #SustainabilityMatters #ShopLocal #LiverpoolIndependents #SustainableFarming #NotWasting #SupportLocal

This week is Recycling Week ♻️ This annual national campaign encourages people to take action against climate change by recycling - something that everyone can do! As a business, we are dedicated to having a positive effect on our planet, from the way we produce food, to the partners we work with and to the packaging we use. All of our packaging and production that goes into delivering your Greens for Good box is 100% recyclable. So this Recycling Week, why not get yourself a box of leafy greens that are good for you and the planet, rather than buying greens in single use plastic that have travelled miles to get to your supermarket. Have a look at the link in our bio for more information. Most of us are stepping it up to take climate change down, and recycling is one of the easiest ways to do it. Take action – recycle more. Step It Up this #RecycleWeek.

What is food insecurity? The term food insecurity is defined as 'the state of being without reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food'. In other words, it means that you don't have regular access to affordable food that is good for you. And we believe that everyone should have access to fresh healthy food. That's why, Greens for Good isn't just a box subscription service. It is part of our wider mission at Farm Urban to change behaviours around the way we access, eat and interact with our food. 🌱 Your box of greens pays for local schools to learn about the importance of healthy eating and how to grow their own food. 🌱 Your box of greens pays for donation boxes that go to local charities and organisations to be distributed to local communities around Merseyside. 🌱 Your box of greens pays for local community groups to have continued access to healthy living greens and to bring people together around food growing to build stronger communities. Your box of greens pays to help fight food insecurity for the people of Merseyside and beyond. #GreensForGood #FarmUrban #Hydroponics #HydroponicGrowing #UrbanFarming #UrbanAgriculture #FeedTheFuture #SustainableFood #VerticalFarming #ZeroWasteLiving #SustainabilityMatters #FoodInsecurity #FightForFood #FightFoodInsecurity

Each one of your boxes is lovingly harvested by one of our farm team in the centre of Liverpool! 🌱 The greens we grow at Greens for Good are hyperlocal - grown in the Baltic Triangle! But why support an urban farm growing produce in the heart of the city? Local food systems are able to positively influence the local economy. When you buy local, you're not only supporting the farmers that grow the food but you're investing your money back into your local community. We work with many charities and businesses to give access to fresh and healthy food to everyone, and as a social enterprise, we're all about supporting our local economy and building stronger communities 💪🏼💚 Our box subscriptions are an essential part of what we do in our mission to supply the people of Liverpool with fresh and healthy food. A box of greens isn't just good for you... It's good for everyone in your local community beyond 🌍 Box subscriptions can be found on our website. #GreensForGood #FarmUrban #LiverpoolIndependents #SustainableFood #VerticalFarming #ShopLocal #SupportLocal #HealthIsTheNewWealth #EatYourGreens #Nutrition #HealthyEating #HealthyLifestyle #Sustainability #SustainableLiving #Hydroponics #FeedTheFuture #UrbanFarming #UrbanAgriculture #IndependentLiverpool
