Flour Tower 

Flour Tower is the horticultural centre of the city. The vertical farm provides a bright space to grow fresh produce, and the ground floor hosts an educational centre to run workshops to inform residents about urban agriculture. 

​The Beehive encourages and sustains the local honeybee population, and the café and farm shop sells all the products grown on-site. Cycle parking, as well as a fleet of cargo bikes are available for distribution to local schools and shops. 

The centre facilitates the full lifecycle of food production — thereby reducing Gingerbread food miles.
