Urban farming is education and recreation, not realistic food production of any meaningful scale.

It'd be better PR to just call it what it actually is. Education and gardening are nice, and good.

BSing us and telling us we're gonna stop needing to buy food from the midwest and great planes... literally the most productive agricultural region on Earth, is just gonna make people snark. Stop it.
