*[http://www.patternlanguage.com] - One of the first Patterns is City-Country Fingers, a "starfish" form, with interlocking fingers of farmland and urban land, each about 1 mile (1.5 to 2 kilometers) wide.

Plants in the city can:

  • can reduce temperatures (reducing the need for air-conditioning
  • provide fresh produce, which potentially has requires less resources to grow than produce transported from outside the city, and should be much fresher and thus better tasting - especially in the case of highly perishable produce such as salad greens.
  • improve the appearance and feeling of the surroundings
  • provide insulation (in the form of a W).
  • be used indoors as W to help cure W

W and W are space-efficient ways of bringing plants into the city.
