While few NYC residents realize it, there are three genuine farms within the city limits, one in Queens, one in east New York, and one on Staten Island. While the food they produce is only a fraction of that consumed by New Yorkers every day, the survival of these three farms shows the viability of urban agriculture. While decreasing transportation costs and suburban sprawl have pushed agriculture further and further away from urban centers, there were always farms in New York City, providing at least some residents with the kind of fresh, locally grown food products that began to disappear as industrial food production and lengthy supply 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 viability of urban agriculture but also in regards to correcting the general lack of knowledge about nutrition and sustenance. 521 8 Not rated. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Urban agriculture|zNew York (State)|zNew York. 650 0 Local foods|zNew York (State)|zNew York. 655 7 Video recordings for the hearing impaired.|2lcgft 700 1 Caccese, Rachel,|efilm director. 700 1 Caccese, Nick,|efilm producer,|escreenwriter. 700 1 Sheehan, Emily,|ecommentator,|eon-screen participant. 700 1 Shey, Rachel Knopf,|ecommentator,|eon-screen particpant. 700 1 Dorn, Erica,|ecommentator,|eon-screen partcipant. 700 1 Rizzo, Dawn,|ecommentator,|eon-screen participant. 700 1 Olson, Kelley,|ecomposer. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/11942256|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ dsa_818506021616ld_180.jpeg
