Awesome! Thanks for the comment Nick. The urban food movement really seems to be hotting up. In Australia there’s been quite a bit happening - check out the recent Sustainable Cities Round Table on sustainable food systems, held in Melbourne. http://www.sustainablemelbourne.com/urban-design-and-built-form/resource-introduction-to-the-sustainable-cities-round-table-on-sustainable-food-systems-28-may/
