Furniture-pot is a building block, built with recycled materials for growing plants and vegetables under the concept of permaculture and urban agriculture. The satisfaction of eating something produced by ourselves. The dynamic that revolves around the production system (planting, fertilizing, watering) Poor feeding Environmental pollution Unsustainability

Jan Axelson Sweden PhD. Education Jan Axelson Sweden PhD. Education Julieta Mazzola Argentina Msc. Environment and Land Management “! You should make plans to change the world ! VEGGEPOT is an idea is cheap, durable, and sustainable.” “Urban agriculture is a good alternative for the population has access to healthy foods..”

“this idea of sustainability encourages family self- sufficiency” Luis Pocasangre Honduras PhD. Science Jorge Arce Costa Rica Msc. Tropical Crops “Urban agriculture should be done by harnessing the resources of each region.”

Pánfilo Tabora Philippines PhD. Environmental Science. He is a professor at EARTH University, but travels the world constantly, soon will come to Costa Rica (June 2011). Would improve the Veggepot? With such initiatives contribute to change? Urban agriculture reduces the problematic of global hunger and malnutrition?
