Closing the Food Gap

From the War on Poverty to new farmers' markets, a food expert tackles America's dangerous dietary split With a new Foreword "Closing the Food Gap" exposes America's dangerous dietary split: from patrons of food pantries, bodegas, and convenience stores to the more comfortable classes who increasingly seek out organic and local products. Calling largely on his own experience in food activism, and mixing in surprisingly witty observations, Mark Winne ultimately envisions realistic partnerships in which family farms and impoverished communities come together to get healthy, locally produced food onto everyone's table.
