For the exhibition at the Tate Modern, Edible Estates installed a large table with graphics that tell the stories of the London and Los Angeles Gardens. In the center of the table are 60 books on urban agriculture and growing food, particularly for the region around London. A plasma screen plays alternate videos about the two gardens. At the entry to the exhibit there is a garden "photo of the week" which will document the growth of the London garden through it's first summer.
