A recent article "Reimagining Infrastructure for Local Food" in Orion Magazine came to my attention on Mark Bittman's twitter feed.
This is a semi-long read but it's worth your time, if you care about local food and supporting the farmers and food producers who maintain your local foodshed.

It's important for those of us who advocate for local food production and distribution to read and reread the solid information Rowan Jacobsen has presented in this piece. As Mark Bittman said…
And, while you're there, take a look around the Orion site. Like me, you may want to add it to your favorite way to follow great information about how humans interact with their world.
