I am very excited to bring you a visualisation of the new GrowUp Box, designed by our architectural designer, Sam Cox. Use the legend below:
1. 40 vertical growing towers packed with a wide range of plants, producing over 400kg of fresh salad each year.
2. Staircase provides safe access to the greenhouse and has been designed for a school environment.
3.1500 litre fish tank provides a comfortable environment for 150 fish.
4.90% openable greenhouse roof ventilates the structure during hot summer months.
5. 20ft up-cycled shipping container given a new life to securely house the aquaponic growing system.
6. Fully openable front facing doors open the structure up for workshops + events.

"Your best friends become your worst enemies. Lollipops turn into cigarettes. The innocent ones turn into sluts. Homework goes in the trash. Cell phones are used in class. Detention becomes suspension. Soda become vodka. Underwear turn into thongs. Kisses turn into sex. Remember when getting high meant swinging in the playground? When protection meant wearing a helmet? When the worst things you could get from boys were cooties? When Dad's shoulders were the highest place on earth and Mum was your hero? Your worst enemies were your siblings. Race issues were about who ran the fastest? War was only a card game, the only drug you knew was cough medicine and wearing a skirt didn't make you a whore. The only things that hurt you were skinned knees and goodbyes only meant until tomorrow? The only drama you knew of was Romeo and Juliet. The only thing you could cheat in was games, and players were only for sports, not relationships. The only curse word you knew was "shut up". The only way we could change was with clothes and not ourselves. And to think we couldn't wait to grow up."
Ps. Sorry for taking so long to upload. I was so busy this past two weeks with school and everything that I found myself unable to take last week's picture. So this is it. It looks so grainy but, whatever, maybe I'll retake it or something. This week's picture is coming up. I promise. Don't know if it's going to be up tomorrow or in this coming week.

My friend Lud came back from Shanghai last year with the best sword ever.
So of course I had to pose with it.

I've got a bunch of photos from Paris on my camera but until I download them you'll have to make do with this.
We were approached by a company called Webvid to conduct an interview with Tom at the GrowUp Box. Webvid is a London-based video, audio and web production agency and are currently working on a pilot for their new YouTube Channel featuring successfully funded crowdfunding projects such as GrowUp Urban Farms. Please check back for the finished product on their website – until then have a look at our Kickstarter video which helped us raise over £16,500 by 300+ backers – money which helped us build the demonstration farm, the GrowUp Box.
When I grow up I want to be an astronomer.
Looking through a toilet paper tube at my socks. Still not feeling great, but at least I'm playing again.

spitian mother with her 3 kids, waiting outside the dhankar monastery.
spiti has some strange and rather unfair custom as long as children are concerned. the first child in the family is the one who inherit all the things from the parents, the second child is send to the monastery to be lama for the life, and then third 'n onwards ... they get nothing from the family or what-so-ever once they growup!
now a days, monastery rules has become little lenient to spread buddhism and attract new generation, they allow lots of freedom to lama and also send them home whenever there is need in the family. however, they levy rs. 20000=00, if the second child is not send to the monastery for becoming monk.

Today, while wandering aimlessly around my house searching for Project 365 inspiration, I came across my diary from high school. As I read through the pages detailing the complicated life of a 16 year old girl, I realized how much I've changed since then, and I barely know the girl I used to be. I wrote all of my secrets in that book, trusting that nobody would ever read it. It's a miracle so many pages have survived so long. Typically I write in my diary, get everything off my chest, tear out the page, crumple it up and throw it away. These days, I write my thoughts in my blog, although it's not nearly as personal as my shiny pink diary! I suppose my Project 365 descriptions are somewhat like my diary as well!
We had our very first Open Day at the GrowUp Box in January. Some very keen individuals came along to have a closer look at our little farm. Our next Open Day is scheduled for 21 February (10am to 2pm), please feel free to come along for a chat with Oscar – our Box manager as well as a cup of tea!
Climate-KIC asked our opinion about a good place to have a staff dinner – we obviously suggested one of our own customers – the Printhouse Bar & Kitchen in Stratford. This was also an excellent opportunity to experience the overwhelming flavour of our GrowUp Greens first-hand. We supplied them with three types of Kale, two types of Mustard and Parsley. They were well impressed with the food and you should definitely pop in for one of their mouth-watering dishes.
I took this picture when I went for a trip around Bütgenbach's lack. This mushroom is : Amadouvier des pins, unguline marginée Fomitopsis pinicola =Polyporus marginatus = Ungulina marginata, Polyporaceae, Aphyllophorales, Basidiomycètes
this mushroom grow on a pine who is dead or sick . It is important in the role of decaying pine

We opened the GrowUp Box to Groundwork London for their event ‘Aquaponics behind the Scenes’ as part of their Make, Grow, Do project. They took a tour of the Box, learnt about aquaponics and made their own small hydroponic grower.
We had another lovely visit from some Royal Holloway MSc students who travelled all the way from Egham in Surrey to come see our little farm at Roof East. They loved the taste of our GrowUp Greens!
I totally fell asleep like this last night! haha
I've been wanting to do a shot inspired by this amazing song for awhile now. Scratch by Kendall Payne
again, the little moss thingie. i'm no moss and liverwort expert, but my guess is that this is a marchantia polymorpha. it also looks similar to marchantia berteroana and marchantiophyta listeni, so i'm not really sure what's its name.

was very excited to meet Imperial College’s current Green Chemists for a sunny day out at GrowUp Box in Stratford. They seemed very impressed and asked a lot of thought-provoking questions – what a lovely bunch of people! Thank you to Dr. Wilton-Ely for making this happen!
Oscar, our aquaponics technician, attended a very exciting networking event organised by Urban Food Routes at the Oxo Tower Restaurant Brasserie & Bar. We setup a table with some of our freshly harvested GrowUp Greens and got talking with cheese-makers, drink producers and bakers.
me in my studio in Vienna, it is a selfie of me taken by me and all that jazz :)
Peace and Noise!
