We have adapted the #foodcomputer project from @MITOpenAg to European standards and replaced the original microcomputer by a #M5stack and its sensors and it's now installed in a French school and helps children learn how to grow plants.

Changing weather patterns, shifting climate zones, and growing populations all spell trouble for the foods we've traditionally grown and eaten — but innovators like
@ndidiNwuneli, @UmaValeti, @calebgrowsfood, and others are rethinking our food systems: aspenideas.org/articles/dig-…

The #OpenAgMx initiative began in 2015, with the first CityFarm laboratory prototype, designed by @calebgrowsfood. Today it has its own prototype designed in Mexico And it houses the #OpenAgCommunityMx We are glad to remember the history of this incredible project. – at Massachusetts, USA

“Agriculture is turning from atoms into bits.” On @BNNBloomberg’s Power Shift, @calebgrowsfood talks about how machine learning can help improve the flavor of basil and other plants, and why @MITOpenAg is committed to open source. mitsha.re/Gjex30oN1X9

Everything coming up periwinkle @MITOpenAg 😍 why research periwinkle? It’s recognized by the @WHO as an essential cancer therapy drug and if we can use #cea #foodservers + climate optimization we could expand availability and affordability to more people🌍sciencedaily.com/releases/20…

Upgrades happening @MITOpenAg 1. New prototype boards! - top is old #pfcedu and bottom is new one — smaller form factor, more integrated components, led status indicators, hard reset switch for WiFi, now using @MyRasberrypi, more sensors! 2. Our chassis 42 piece down to 32!

In 2015 we built a new prototype & rather than scrap it we #shared it w/ @MITEFMexico who took it and ran!That’s what we do - spread #seedsofchange - but don’t take our word for it check out this #throwback video (in Spanish) from youtu.be/jLUhYvSbJCM #opensource – at Boston, MA

Released a new #dataset from our #foodcomputers @cooperhewitt that have been running since May! Over 30k data points and 2k+ images - all raw data here: github.com/OpenAgricultureFo… a fun time lapse showing growing, pruning, water refills, harvest and replanting all inside a museum
