The founders of Brooklyn Grange, the world’s largest green
rooftop farm, share their inspirational story of changing
the world through entrepreneurship. In their effort to build the world’s first and largest
commercial green rooftop farm, the founders of Brooklyn
Grange learned a lot about building and sustaining a
business while never losing sight of their mission—to serve
their community by providing delicious organic food and
changing the way people think about what they eat. But their story is about more than just farming. It serves
as an inspirational and instructional guide for anyone
looking to start a business that is successful while making
a positive impact. In The Farm on the Roof, the team behind Brooklyn Grange
tell the complete story of how their “farmily” made their
dream a reality. Along the way, they share valuable lessons
about finding the right partners, seeking funding,
expanding, and identifying potential sources of revenue
without compromising your core values—lessons any socially
conscious entrepreneur can apply toward his or her own venture. Filled with colorful anecdotes about the ups and downs of
farming in the middle of New York City, this story is not
just about rooftop farming; it’s about utilizing whatever
resources you have to turn your backyard idea into a
sky-high success.
