I could do that in my truck (Ford 150)! Only it would cost a lot for gas if I wanted to go anywhere.

All junk-yard owners should see this video. Instead of rusting eye sores they could have life sustaining, good for you produce. 😉

Such a great idea to bring the farm to the people. Haha… How about a convertible bus? You can probably grow a lot of stuff on a bus. Good find John.

God damn hauling all that dirt and water must be killing the planet with the extra gas expense. But if it’s meant for a statement to encourage people to grow, then i think it’s worth it; as long as they don’t place it in their truck too.

Hey there- did a little browsing around and found out there are several truck farms in different areas of the country and there was a documentary made about the NY Truck farm which I found to be very interesting and quirky with some really great ideas and tips on urban gardening. You can check it out on amazon in instant streaming for cheap.

Very cool way to teach people to grow food. I think everyone who gets foodstamps should be encouraged to grow some food!

I am not trying to promote Norton, and I know a lot of people out there don’t like them. I feel that every type of internet security program has its pros and cons. And I feel that John would never deliberately promote a website that may be a threat. If the information I received from Norton was wrong, then I’m glad for it, because at least then, we all learned something here. I was just trying to be helpful.

Consider the source of the report (Norton). Using an alternative antivirus software, not internet explorer and a simple web-search would indicated there is not threat from this site.

you wouldn’t want to be driving that car around. the cost savings in the food, would be negative to the extra fuel to move the vehicle.

I would like to see a homeless person’s shopping cart full of soil and growing food to feel the homeless.
