Before you book a session with an urban farming advisor, it helps to know what you are actually working with. This post walks through the questions worth answering in advance: how much sunlight your balcony gets through the day, which pots you already own, and what you hope to grow first. It also explains why a simple soil test and a list of your watering habits can save an hour of back-and-forth. The goal is to make the first call productive rather than exploratory, so you leave with a planting plan instead of a list of new questions.
Read the guideNot every gardening challenge needs the same kind of help. A one-time terrace audit makes sense when you are starting from scratch, while a monthly check-in suits someone who already has crops going and needs troubleshooting. This article compares the formats we offer — from a single site visit to a season-long support plan — and lays out what each one includes. It also covers the tradeoffs: how much hands-on time you get, how we handle follow-up questions, and what level of commitment makes sense for a beginner versus someone with an established kitchen garden.
Compare the optionsPeople usually arrive with the same handful of concerns, and it helps to address them head-on. This post collects the most common ones: whether rooftop gardening damages the building structure, how much time a small vegetable patch really takes each week, and what happens when pests show up mid-season. It also answers practical questions about seed sourcing in India and whether compost from a small bin is enough to feed a terrace garden. The aim is to give you a realistic picture before you commit, so there are no surprises after the first planting weekend.
