The Bough Pot was generated through a partnership between  Carleton University and a local community hub. A brief was developed that aimed to create products that connected users of the community centre's services with urban farming operations. The Bough Pot and its intended system both function to facilitate that connection. As the Bough Pot can be made by 3d printed compression moulds, its manufacturing can take place at the same community hubs it functions in.
