Last night Revolution Brewing held a screening of Urban Roots – a documentary about the urban farming phenomenon in Detroit. If you have the chance, I highly recommend seeing it.
Detroit finds itself in such a unique situation. With so much open space and so few places for most of the city’s residents to get fresh and affordable produce, the urban farming movement makes a lot of sense. Here are a few pictures I took at Eastern Market last year – the open-air public market that attracts 40,000 people each Saturday.
It will be interesting to see what the city looks like in five or ten years – but there are certainly some cool things happening right now. This film is inspiring.
