A global movement to take back our food is growing. The future of farming is in our hands—and in our cities.
This book examines alternative food systems in cities around the globe that are shortening their food chains, growing food within their city limits, and taking their food security into their own hands.
The author, an award-winning food journalist Jennifer Cockrall-King, sought out leaders in the urban-agriculture movement and visited cities successfully dealing with food deserts. What she found was not just a niche concern of activists, but a global movement that cuts across the private and public spheres, economic classes, and cultures.Â
Cockrall-King describes a global movement happening from London and Paris to Vancouver and New York to establish alternatives to the monolithic globally integrated supermarket model.Â
This book is an exciting, fascinating chronicle of a game-changing movement, a rebellion against the industrial food behemoth, and a reclaiming of communities to grow, distribute, and eat locally.
Soft cover. 384 pages.
