Introduction:
The Dakakker is located on top of the Schieblock office building in the center of Rotterdam. The garden houses vegetables. herbs and bees, with the produce being distributed to local restaurants and in the future their own shop. The Dakakker functions as a test site to experiment with different ways of green-roofs and farming in the city, aiming to turn Downtown Rotterdam into a district that is a source of fresh produce for the neighborhood.
