the small farm movement is a real thing. i just talked to a great candidate for david obey's seat in upper wisconsin. kelly westlund.
she has been up there working with farmers to keep their land, to grow crops besides corn!!!, and to market directly.

chicago is growing the farm economy here as fast as they can. both incentives and infra for new farms in the city, and a great, great, great system of farmers markets for the area farmers who are still out there on the old farms.


farming is definitely changing.
check out kelly. she knows her soil conservation and renewable energy, too.
she will also help mary burke send scott walker packing.
here is a real chance to put your money where your heart is-
