Farming in the Suburbs

A year or so ago The New York Times did an article on this Pasadena family that has turned their 1/10th of an acre suburban lot into a very productive farm. So much so that it provides not only food, but a living for the father and his three adult children. It makes me wish I had a backyard, not that I would be so productive, but just to be able to grow some lettuce, herbs and maybe have fruit tree or two would make such a dent in your food bill. I love that they have goats and chickens. Maybe it's time to move to Brooklyn!
