South-East Queensland is turning to urban agriculture to grow food for the area and create a more green city. 

Taking advantage of Brisbane’s unused urban estate areas, farms such as Millen Farm are equipping locals with the skills to produce food on a small scale.

Millen Farm was built on an old CSIRO research station four years ago, and after gradual rehabilitation of the soil, it operates as a not-for-profit business and commercial  organic farm.

The Moreton Bay Regional Council aims to create the nation’s biggest network of urban farms.
