The Windowfarms Project
March 7th, 2011
When I was living in Brooklyn, I had a neighbor with a crazy idea – to grow her own food in her apartment year round.

Broadcast companies are able to spend millions on 22 minutes of our favorite sitcom because advertisers are willing to pay them millions to show eight minutes of advertisements during the show. Some of the most memorable stories, characters, and moments of my life were made possible by Coca-Cola, Kellogg’s, and Ford. And it works!
