Don’t put all your eggs in one basket, & don’t put most of the world’s food in FOUR baskets. #DoYouKnowYourGMOs

Urban farming brings nutrition to people living in “food deserts” where convenience stores stocked with junk food are the only alternative. It builds community & teaches kids about good food — cuz if they grow it, they eat it. & it’s about as local as you can get. #DoYouKnowYourGMOs
