Stowe Boyd on Hacking the Food System: Social Food- Taking Food Back From Corporations

chris pinchen

4th October 2011

From Hacking the Food System

I believe that we will start to see a new factor: social food cooperatives. Social tools will lead to an alternative food system to the extent that people choose to spend more time involved in the production and distribution of food. This does not mean that everyone will become a full-time farmer, but average people will begin to dedicate more time to local food production and distribution than they have in the past 50 years. This could entail growing food in a greenhouse with five other families, working at a food coop, or keeping chickens on the roof of your New York City brownstone and trading eggs for produce with neighbors.

   Stop your fallacy :

   People don’t need to work, they don’t even need to work to “farm local food” in their home
