It should not just be the urban poor growing food, it should be everyone (suburbs included) that can. Political will must be found to dedicate some space to this in urban ares or deal with the consequences of pollution, contamination, chemcial or genetic treatment of crops to preserve them (affecting the health of our families) and continued dependence of foreign oil.

I have learned you have to get out there and walk the walk, not just talk about this. When the going gets tough the tough get growing.
