Let the urban farmer flourish.
Watch "community focused" small businesses struggle while their they "success friends" disappear so they can make a community focused on something other then capitol. Maybe they'll become urban farmers or intersectionalize with a passed skill like sewing or smut writing.
Get outside y'all go play chess with the old dude at the park. Go call the neighbor kid a little shit. Engage with your community.
Listen here, you little shit . . .
I can feel the engagement! It tingles a little. Yeah, I’m hooked.
I’m gonna go grow some beets in a vacant lot.
(Snarky, but also serious. This would be a good time to get to know your neighbors and your local farmers.)
While I love and support urban farms, would it really be enough space to feed everyone? Google says that each person would need about 600 sqft of space to grow the food they'd need, multiplied by the millions of people in a city... I just don't see how the numbers work.
That is a valid concern. I doubt all the pressure of food distribution would be only on urban farmers it would have to be a coalition of multiple food sources to support people with no capitol. Half a million people in my city would require 6887 acres to feed everyone. Sounds like we got some
savingseizing to do.
