Did you enjoy your extra hour of sleep? 💤🕰Daylight Saving Time (DST) ended today, but for the CEA (Controlled Environment Agriculture) aeroponic greens growing at member org @AeroFarms , it was business as usual. 🌱⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ✳️DST as we know it was proposed by New Zealand Entomologist George Hudson in 1895, to take advantage of the increased daylight in the summer. Contrary to popular belief, farmers, whose schedules were dictated by the sun and not the clock, were historically some of the fiercest opponents of DST, finding it disruptive to their livestock and harvest. Although originally lauded as an effort to conserve energy, modern research has shown that energy savings are inconclusive. 🔆⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #urbanag #DST #grow #farm #fresh #local #learning #sustainable #nyc #urban #aeroponic #agtech #collective #community #aerofarms #farming #urbanfarming #green #nycagcollective #agriculture #foodie #energy #solar #farmingnyc

#borage #urbanfarm #farmingnyc #brooknamgeo #brooknam #growingherbs #winterherbs #urbangardener #farmer #herbfarmer The short clip, was taken over this passed weekend, describing the small seedlings which the Borage herb sowed itself. #Selfsown. While the other images are from over the passed summer — I started this small borage from seed at home under some natural grow lights. Picture 4+5 displays the borage herb, after a couple weeks out of the flower pot and into the soil —notice in picture 5 my hand on the buds just before flowering. Picture 2+3 I want you to notice the closed flower buds (image 2) and one blossomed flower (image 3). The actually flower is often dried and used as a tea —when using fresh herbs as a tea (rather than dried) you’ll need to yield more herb in the water.
