One of these days I’m going to have enough free time to resume putting up original content up here. Until then, I’m going to have to resort to providing links to relevant articles. Are they always going to come from the New York Times? Let’s just say it’s my first resource when it comes to squandering my time online. Today’s example:
Amid the tightly packed row houses of North Philadelphia, a pioneering urban farm is providing fresh local food for a community that often lacks it, and making money in the process.
Greensgrow, a one-acre plot of raised beds and greenhouses on the site of a former steel-galvanizing factory, is turning a profit by selling its own vegetables and herbs as well as a range of produce from local growers, and by running a nursery selling plants and seedlings.
They also do honey. This is the type of shit I’ll be writing about in my monthly column in the Philadelphia Weekly, starting tomorrow. But it looks like I got scooped on this one.
