Public Farm 1
Above the Pavement—The Farm! is a smorgasbord. Based on P.F.1 (Public Farm 1)—a temporary working urban farm and social space built within a cardboard structure rising over 30 feet high, filled with 19 tons of experimental soil, and featuring more than 50 varieties of plants and vegetables—this book explains the literal nuts and bolts of what might appear at the outset an impossibly utopian endeavor. Architects WORKac designed and organized P.F.1 for MoMA’s P.S.1 2008 Young Architects Program with the ambition of creating a new type of sustainable urban infrastructure, producing its own power, reclaiming rainwater, and creating sustenance. This was done with the help of more than 150 collaborators including farmers, politicians, horticulturists, technicians, soil scientists, architecture students, and artists. These participants’ oral histories form the bulk of this book’s narration, demystifying a fast-paced, complex collaborative process.
