Some inspiring pictures taken by Todd Selby at Annie Novak's rooftop farm, Greenpoint New York.
The perfect prove that a city girl can live green and grow her own vegetables.
This is exactly what I would love to see more. Because a conscious way of living, stepping away from mass consumption and instant gratification is not only for hippies anymore.
She even has her own bees! It's a known fact that honey produced in cities have a richer flavor. The bees take honey from the flowers they find. In a city that's in parks and flower shops, where the variety is bigger. I wonder how Annie's homemade honey tastes.. :)

If you like these images, you'll want to check out A Year At Eagle Street Rooftop Farm, a one-night show of my year-long photo documentary of the farm. It's being held Friday, Dec. 10, from 6 p.m. to midnight at 388 Atlantic. Ave. in Brooklyn.
