How are abandoned malls being used to grow food?

High-tech indoor farms using hydroponics and vertical gardening have been creatively converted from abandoned shopping malls across the United States to produce fresh fruit throughout the year. 

By offering a sustainable, local source of vegetables, this creative approach tackles food deserts in metropolitan areas while also reviving neighborhoods with new employment and educational opportunities.

Cities are promoting local resilience, converting former food courts into actual food sources, and building a more environmentally friendly future by converting these economic failure into centers of clean agriculture.
