In landscape architecture, green vertical landscape practices are recognized as a biophilic design method to reflect contemporary ambitions of living in nature while reducing buildings’ energy demands. Inspired by Leberecht Migge’s 1919 provocation, incorporating edible gardens in social housing promotes self-sufficiency and social welfare. This study explores green vertical productive landscapes as an urban agriculture strategy, merging buildings with nature, improving quality of life, and providing fresh food. European examples highlight the use of edible gardens, integrated soilless agriculture, and their potential to boost productivity, reduce pollution, and enhance ecosystem resilience. Challenges and future directions are discussed.

Keywords: urban agriculture; green vertical landscapes; environmental sustainability
