Contributing Editor AARON RENN on The Pasture Gate regarding Detroit

by Kaitlin Hopkins 11/27/2009

"'Detroit has become ground zero for North America's local food movement. Last year there were roughly 550 gardens in the city's urban farming network. This year there are more than 850. Driving around the city, you can see everything that will make up your dinner—chickens, goats, mushrooms, plum trees, honeybee hives.... Here, a locavore doesn't eat food that's traveled 100 kilometres. She eats food that's travelled 10.'"
