    The idea of a "farmacy" program where doctors prescribe good healthy farm fresh food is so enlightened. Finally someone gets the connection between how we eat and our health. So good to see these hard working dedicated farmers eradicating "food deserts" in NYC.

The “good “ has been there for a very long time but if you go and observe how there’s systematic things that work on a certain way perhaps you might understand that. I have hope that this platforms also gonna be based more on intersectionality and eventually they will use the privilege for good . At least the way the No till Podcats is taking for example ... Is not my work to educate you on any level .
