食物是人类生存的基本要素。回顾一下，人们生产、储存和消费食物的方式已经有了很大的发展与进步，从很久以前，人类就学会如何收集、生产和消费食物。由于世代相传的技术，人类繁衍得以持续，随着工业化大规模生产，社会产生了大量消费者，于是人类又进入了消费时代。

与农业和粮食生产有关的技能和工艺，现在在大都市环境中已经有些过时。通过超市甚至在线媒介的大众消费正在慢慢改变人们对于食物的消费方式。

那么，这就出现了过度消费、质量差、浪费严重以及过度依赖制造机构等问题。从长远来看，人们对新鲜食品/水果的看法来源于广告和花式包装，这会对健康产生一定的影响，进而阻碍人类的发展。

现在是大展身手的时候了。

作为一名设计师，您如何将农业以触手可及的方式带到城市中，同时充分了解人们的饮食与喜好。这不仅需要意识到食物的作用，同时也要明白人们的行为所要担负的责任。你怎样才能改变城市的消费形象？并且将其改变为供应方？或者使用当今技术，让人们轻松地进行农业生产，便于人们未来的种植生活。“城市餐点”也许将成为人们学习/种植食物的地方，这些地方通常位于城市的中心地带，拥有熟练劳动力、丰富的运输系统、短距离物流，以及先进的生产技术可以有效地增加整体收入。

Food is one of the most fundamental elements of human existence. Looking back, the way we produce, store and consume food has evolved greatly. Humans have thrived because our ancestors learnt how to gather, produce and consume food, all with their bare hands. And mankind has sustained due to these crucial elements of knowledge passed through generations. With industrialization came mass production, and with mass production came an influx of consumers – who started paying instead.
Skills and crafts related to agriculture and food production are now mostly obsolete in the urbane environment. Mass consumerism through supermarkets and even online mediums is slowly changing how we perceive, acquire and consume food.
This has raised issues like overconsumption, poor quality, high wastage and an over-dependence on manufacturing agencies. In the long run our perception of fresh foods/fruits will be completely eroded by advertisements and fancy packaging, which can have irreversible impacts on health, and hence, the human evolution cycle.

The time to intervene is now.
As a designer how can you bring farming to the cities where people can see, participate or celebrate cultivation – and understand what they eat, much better? Where not only awareness related to food is available, but as a community we become more responsible for our actions. How can you change the image of cities as the ones that only consume, to ones that contribute too? Or make farming so easy for people using technologies of today that makes it easy for people to grow it in their homes? Urban meal mine1(n), is a place where people can generate/learn/contribute to grow food for their city. This is usually located in the heart of the city where skilled labour + abundant transport + short distance logistics + faster production technologies can break even revenue over the high cost land it occupies.
