Cities are eating up our prime farmland at the rate of two acres per minute 24-7-365. This loss of farmland leads us to ask…

How can we save enough farmland to maintain our food chain? (#619)

This Saturday at 9am Pacific, Michael Olson’s Food Chain Radio hosts Ellie Kastanopolous from Equity Trust and Jody Bolluyt from Hudson Valley’s Roxbury Farm for a conversation about holding on to farmland.

Listen on your radio, computer or IPOD: www.metrofarm.com.

Topics include whether enough privately-owned farmland can be saved to maintain the nation’s food chain; what alternatives exist to private ownership of farmland; and what results to these alternatives yield?
