[Sdpg] FARMS IN THE CITY, Saturday Mar 1, 2008 at 9am METROFARM.COM radio program streaming live

[Santa Barbara Permaculture Network]

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 
<http://www.metrofarm.com/>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:
