The courtyard at PS1 is famous for hosting weekend dance parties for the post art-school crowds. The museum has recently announce the winning firm, Work Architecture, who will design the courtyard for this summer. They are going to be installing a working vegetable farm in cardboard tubes that will rise above the party area. They hope to even sell crops at a farmer's market.

According to wine maker Robert Herald, who will be teaching a class in backyard and rooftop winemaking at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden says that twelve 5 gallon pots makes 5 gallons of wine. Maybe PS1 should start their own label.
