Kurt at Resource Insights points us<\/a> to an inspiring speech by CSA farmer Jay Martin<\/a> at Global Public Media. Martin’s speech is a very thoughtful analysis of the links between agricultural practices and the sense of community (or lack thereof) created by these practices, and argues that sustainable, community-based farming models hold promise not only for addressing myriad environmental problems, but also issues of human health, both at the individual and group levels.<\/p>\n While on the subject, let me also note that the subject of community-supported agriculture is the current hot topic at GreenBusiness.net<\/a>. This group never ceases to amaze me on the subject matter they can address with knowledge and passion.<\/p>\n Technorati tags: agriculture<\/a>, sustainability<\/a><\/p>\n
