Novella Carpenter Quotes
Urban farming appeals to people on the right and the left. People have different reasons for getting into it.

And then there's people that are more like, "We want to be socialists and have communal chicken coops." It really runs the whole gamut.

Only when you understand them well, can you come up with an interface that will let them work.
