Picture the good old days when a network of family farms just outside a city provided food for nearby urban eaters--an early 20th-century reality that seems quaint from the perspective of someone navigating today's globalized agricultural system.

I'm a little pulled on this 1. My 1st issue--how are the animals being treated? I ministered at Angola, which incorporates farming in the prison system, & the inmates were extremely proud of their work.
I don't know. What do yoooooooou think?
