Change for food in Milwaukee

I'm happy to see that Will Allen, of Growing Power Farm in my hometown of Milwaukee has been awarded a MacArthur Genius Grant. Kudos! I just finished reading Michael Pollan's The Omnivore's Dilemma and his latest book, In Defense of Food, so I have been thinking about the issue of finding real food, healthy food that is good for the environment. What's amazing is that Mr. Allen has managed to create an environmentally healthy farm in an economically depressed area -- and produces high-quality product.
