FRUIT takes up the challenge of elevating the ecological
knowledge of consumers and encouraging a way of life
that is friendly to the environment. We want consumers
to be conscious of the entire life of a product, from
production to utilization, and not just what they
see in the stores. Consumers must be aware that every
phase of a product's life influences the environment
and ourselves.
While cities are often seen as set aside from nature,
we aim to investigate the agriculture which feeds
urban dwellers. For Beyond Green, Free Soil will use
oranges as a vehicle to explore the complex relationships
that make up the worlds Food Systems.
The
FRUIT
wrappers are to be disseminated
throughout the food chain using fruit
as a medium. The Wrapper holds information
on a variety of aspects concerning food
movements, transport and urban farming.
