[hackerspaces] Discuss Digest, Vol 63, Issue 6

Inspiration Labs, founder of Tampa Hackerspace, is in the process of
opening a green hackerspace for experimentation with aquaculture,
permaculture, biohacking, and other green tech. The plan is to take
existing plans and then instrument the hell out of them to see how far we
can take automation to make the systems as self-sufficient as possible.

We'd love to collaborate with some other green tech spaces moving forward.
