b'organic farms and local food systems goes beyond agriculture, health, local economies and climate change. What underpins all this for me, what feeds me as surely as mycorrhizal fungi collude with the root hairs of a beet, is the impulse to do less harm, the impulse towards conviviality and collaboration and radical neighborliness, the impulse towards something that is the opposite of both Jihad and McWorld. Responding to this impulse begins with healing the ills of distance, anonymity and transience that have alienated us from our life sourcefood. 15Whats more peaceable than getting to know a local organic farmer and giving her a 0% loan?
