Marco de Kat’s experience in Oosterwold, where he grows a variety of produce right outside his home, exemplifies the sustainability of urban agriculture in a self-sufficient community.
Oosterwold's urban planning experiment allows residents to design their own homes and manage communal resources, but it mandates that half of each plot is used for food production.
According to Jan Eelco Jansma, the requirement for urban agriculture within Oosterwold sets it apart globally, as it combines freedom and responsibility in urban design.
As the land is entirely self-sufficient, residents like de Kat can rely on their own gardens for food, highlighting a sustainable living model in contemporary urban settings.
