Gardening is one of the fastest-growing, and most-loved hobbies of our time. Urban dwellers are taking advantage of every space available to get their hands dirty growing their own food and flowers – even their own roofs. Custom Made, a site that connects people who want one-of-a-kind goods with professional and passionate artisans, has created an infographic entitled “Raise the Roof: How to Plant a Rooftop Garden”, which details just how you can get a rooftop garden of your own.

From structure concerns and weight limitations, to wind-proofing and crop selection, this infographic contains everything you need to know before starting your own rooftop garden.

If you’re one of the many people who live in an urban area and only have a rooftop available for gardening, peruse the article, share the infographic, and and learn about how to expand your garden and raise your roof to be a bit greener.
