A New Perspective on Agriculture

"When conditions are ripe for it, these suburban lots could quickly be
developed into mini-farms, either as home-based businesses or as a
source of much good food for the family living there. That sort of
flexibility, coupled with broad-based ownership of prime agricultural
land in the form of suburban lots, may turn out to be a very lucky and
important break at a moment when we need one badly."

This is certainly my personal plan. I am a devoted activist on one-hand living in the DC Area at the moment, but spent the last 3 years on a small organic farm. I miss it - but I hate long commutes from rural to urban areas, so over the next couple of years I hope to have my little farm in the city.
