On the June 17th edition of Your Call, we’ll have a conversation about urban agriculture. Eighty percent of the US population lives in cities, further from farms than ever, but more and more city dwellers are growing their own food on empty lots or in their backyards. The film Growing Cities examines this trend from the Bay Area to Detroit. How are urban farms revitalizing communities and changing the way we eat? It’s Your Call with Rose Aguilar, and you. Guests: Dan Susman, director and producer of Growing Cities Caitlyn Galloway, co-founder, Little City Gardens in San Francisco Joseph Davis, urban farmer and staff member at City Slicker Farms in West Oakland Web resources: Growing Cities Little City Garden City Slicker Farms Truth-out: Baltimore Combats Food Deserts with Urban Farming Tax Breaks NPR: Tax Breaks May Turn San Francisco’s Vacant Lots into Urban Farms
