I recently visited the most beautiful site in the entire New York City - the formerly abandoned front lawn of the High School for Public Service in Brooklyn. Stacy Murphy and Farmer Bee of BK Farmyards (http://www.bkfarmyards.com/) along with the students of the school have created a mind-blowing 1 acre (and growing) farm. They also run a weekly farmers market where harvests from the farm are sold. I was blown away by how beautiful the farm looked. All of the vegetables were breathtaking. It is really inspiring to see youth in urban places connect with nature in this way.
