War of The Winds: Evolution
I am on the FOURTH iteration of wind turbines here at Mezzacello Urban Farm. We started with a traditional horizontal axis wind turbines. Then I switched to the vertical axis flower turbines. Now I am exploring vertical blade vertical axis wind turbines in new configurations.
Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Update
I am getting ready to expand and modify the VAWT systems at Mezzacello. I will move the two towers from the north side of sheds 1 and 2 to the south side. Read why in this blog. Learn more in a workshop at Mezzacello!

Mezzacello in Winter - Animals, Power, and Water
A quick update on power and livestock systems to keep liquid water on hand in winter. I will update this.
The Data Revolution at Mezzacello
Over COVID 2019 2020 2021 and now 2022 I have been building a machine for life and data. The "key" was power!
Mezzacello Energy Farm and Bioreactor Project
The next phase of Mezzacello will include the energy farm and the 3D Printing Infrastructure.
Energy Gardens For The Future of Food
After years of providing power to the garden this was the year that the garden began providing power back as a "crop".
