FoodSpace: Food production in the city

Existing alternatives to factory foods can be remarkably nostalgic, relying
on models of rural purity and tiny homesteads, separated from the urban
centres these farms serve. Our cultural associations with the purity of the
countryside and the pollution of cities have limited our incorporation of new
urban farming methods. By relying on standard, and horizontal, spatial
relationships to our food, we have overlooked the potential of cities to
provide us with fresh, seasonal, and local foods.
