Any way you slice it local farms would be supported, local economies strengthened, food quality and freshness improved, open space preserved and the carbon footprint reduced. A disruptive innovation in the processing and distribution systems is needed to change the status quo.

Wendy Littlefield, a very intelligent woman with a head for business (she built Ommegang Brewery) and a heart for sustainable agriculture, has formulated an idea to bring more local, sustainable agriculture to regional higher education institutions. She outlines it in her blog.
