"When tillage begins, other arts follow. The farmers, therefore, are the founders of human civilization." --Daniel Webster
There's a Farm in the Front Yard
"I'm 57," Michael says. "Started at 26. And we're just barreling along! If I have to work 7 days a week, I'll do it." Back when Michael and Bob started 30 years ago, there wasn't much about urban agriculture around. Soon, City Farmer had hundreds of pages of original urban agriculture research online, before anyone else did. Today, City Farmer is now Canada's Office of Urban Agriculture, and their website may hold more information about this subject than any other source in the world.
BE THE CHANGE
Take a fresh look at your front and backyards. Instead of mowing the lawn, imagine it as your own organic food garden.
