This is the Wiki page for [[The RBE10K Project]]'s Farming and gardening [[RBE10K/Teams|Team]]. See [[RBE10K/Teams/List|the full list of teams]].

== Objectives ==
The '''Team of Farming and gardening''' is the small scale version of the upcoming Farming team. It's purpose is documenting experiences and about small scale farming on gardens, or gardening for non-edibles.
This information is intended to be shared and discussed by anyone interested in the field, and to provide ideas and know-how for the large main Farming teams.

== Garden farming ==
Garden farming is the planting of small scale edibles in a garden. This would include herbs, spices, squashes, tomatoes, leafy greens, and even small trees like lemons and mandarins.

== To Do ==
* Create a Facebook group for the team
* Invite more people to join
* Categorise the experiences by type of plant
* Research and follow-up on ideas documented

== Gardening ==
Gardening includes the planting of any non-edibles found on a garden, such as flowering plants, bushes, etc. The objectives for The RBE10K Project are finding plants that both look pretty and have some kind of practical use also.

=== Examples of practical use of gardens ===
* In Earthships, certain types of bushes are required to be planted on the outside of the building, right on top of sewage outpours. The bushes  help breaking-down the sludge, helping to turn it into grey-waters, suitable for off-flowing to the inside gardens. On the inside, these gardens, partly aquatic with fish, assist with breaking down those materials even further, causing a full recycle from waste to almost perfectly pure water. This water, once filtered, is suitable for drinking.
