Though not there yet due to a lot of challenges, Urban Farm’s sustainable journey has started and the team behind it is coming up with different ways to cut down on waste and plastic usage,” shared Michael Andan, Greenfield Development Corporation’s Head of Marketing Communications.
Urban Farm is just getting started.
