Posted project update #11NY Times article
An NY Times article (via the Bay Citizen) came out today featuring Little City Gardens! The article describes the ways that cities are changing laws and policies in order to keep up with the rising interest in urban agriculture. Check it out here! It's a short article, only grazing the surface of a conversation about zoning and agriculture and it's potential place within a city. But it's a good article nonetheless, and it's satisfying to see news articles that highlight the really important issues that urban farmers are facing all over the country. Let us know what you think!
Also, most of you have probably gotten your Kickstarter rewards in the mail by now (or, for some of you, the first installment anyway). If for some reason you haven't received them, let us know.

Posted project update #9zoning obstacles
Kickstarter supporters,
We just wrote a blog post about the zoning issues we're facing here in San Francisco. If you live in SF, will you consider writing a letter to the Planning Department? And whether you live in SF or not, will you please forward this post around? In a time when urban agriculture is on many cities' radars as a crucial step toward creating healthy local food systems, urban farmers across the country are facing similar zoning obstacles when it comes to market-gardening. The Planning Department is currently reviewing our case, and we need your voices.blog post here: http://www.littlecitygardens.com/2010/05/lets-clarify-sf-zoning-code/
