Description

This week on The Farm Report Heather welcomed new co-host Erin Fairbanks to the show. The gals talked to Derek Denckla, author of TheGreenest.net and founder of FarmCity.us, a sort of combination catalyst, aggregator, and promotional tool for sustainable agriculture events. Tune in to find out how Dereks survey of Bushwick revealed a community hungry for more food growth and less condos, and how a lagging economy and the vacant lots left in its wake put this shared dream within reach. This episode was sponsored by Robertas.

The Farm Report is a show about the people, processes, and policies that shape how food is produced today. From the latest agricultural innovations to the day-to-day challenges of running a viable business growing vegetables and grazing cattle, host Lisa Elaine Held engages in conversations with farmers and farmworkers and the people who work alongside them—like chefs, researchers, activists, and investors. Expect from-the-field insights paired with real-world context as guests explore how producing fresh, delicious food relates to environmental and community sustainability, equality and justice, politics and policy, and better health.
