VEGE

Juniper Foo | Feb 05, 2007

Here's a seed of an idea one hopes will take root commercially. The concept, cultivated by Thai student Teeravit Hanharutaivan, lets you have your organic greens and eat it. All thanks to a fridge-like appliance which turns you into Farmer Brown, without the hassle, right within your kitchen. The VEGE can hold up to 40 plants, growing them hydroponically, while a digital display lets even green-thumb cretins know how many days are needed to achieve full growth for each row of plants. A brill idea for space-starved flat dwellers who desire a healthier diet. Electrolux, are you listening? More competition entries at the Electrolux Design Lab here.

Congratulations to Teeravit Hanharutaivan for inventing such a wonderful appliance. I hope and pray that a manufacturer buys the invention from him and starts makin these. It will improve the health of everyone in the world! Teeravit Hanharutaivan deserves a huge prize for this! I'm posting this on my blog: RawFoodGrrl.blogspot.com
