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
La iniciativa #OpenAgMx comenzĂł en 2015, con el primer prototipo de laboratorio de CityFarm, diseñado por @calebgrowsfood. Hoy cuenta con un prototipo propio diseñado en MĂ©xico Y alberga la #OpenAgCommunityMx Nos alegra recordar la historia de este increĂble proyecto.

“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

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
