From San Francisco, this video articulates well the vision of urban agriculture as a tool for community building. One of the key points is that we need to do a better job of capturing our cities' wasted resources. And by the way you can also eat the vegetables!

Here in NYC we flush our toilets with drinking water. boy, do we look foolish.

And every time if rains 1/4 inch for more, we flush raw sewage into the East River. It's called a "combined sewer overflow". I wonder how that's going to work at the new beach their building on the East River on the Brooklyn waterfront.

There's lot of beaches you can go to but swimming is not allowed. Plum Beach near Knapp St and the Canarsie Pier area come to mind. Just because there's sand doesn't mean that you're allowed in so if the only bathing allowed is of the sun kind then they'll be ok.

Perhaps the local Brower Park could provide a setting for a backyard gardening information event.
