Down On The Urban Farm

Hi all,

I stumbled across an interesting non-profit that is all about urban farming. They have a great spot on CNN

Then I did a little digging and found their website a comprehensive look at creating urban farms/faming in our sities. I really like their Include Food program that encourages people to plant food when landscaping. Might as well - I have always said that if you are going to plant something, given we have to manage it, it might as well be edible.

My message has been to get people to think about what it will take to begin growing food in all of our urban areas. Their non profit is a great start AND how can we go about integrating food into all of our lanscapes. At schools, chirches, city medians, patks - the space between you and the neighbor?

Food for thought!?
