A FOOD CHAIN RELEASE FROM
METROFARM.COM
Six decades ago,
farms began leaving the city for greener pastures. Today they are
returning. This leads us to ask: “Can farms and cities prosper
together?”
This Saturday at 9am Pacific, the Food Chain with Michael Olson hosts
Milwaukee’s Grow Urban and New York City’s Make Brooklyn Bloom farm
conferences for a conversation about the efficacy of metropolitan
agriculture.
Log on the Food Chain page at
www.metrofarm.com to listen on
your radio, computer or IPOD.
Topics include reasons why farms locate in or near a city; why
cities tolerate the growth of crops in their midst; and whether farms and
cities can indeed prosper together.
Question of the Week:
Can farms
and cities prosper together?
