| New York City is a metropoIis of towering skyscrapers, vast infrastructure, miIIions of people and...farms? WhiIe few NYC residents reaIize it, there are three genuine farms within the city limits, one in Queens, one in east New York, and one on Staten lsland. While the food they produce is only a fraction of that consumed by New Yorkers every day, the survivaI of these three farms shows the viability of urban agricuIture. WhiIe decreasing transportation costs and suburban sprawl have pushed agriculture further and further away from urban centers, there were aIways farms in New York City, providing at least some residents with the kind of fresh, IocalIy grown food products that began to disappear as industriaI food production and Iengthy suppIy chains began to take over how Americans consumed food. This documentary is an attempt to set the record straight not only in regards to the viabiIity of urban agricuIture but also in regards to correcting the generaI lack of knowIedge about nutrition and sustenance. |
