Hi folks,

Does anyone out there have info about the benefits of urban agriculture
written as talking points useful to a politician?  I've had a request
for some talking points and I don't want to spend the time researching
and writing a memo if someone is willing to share one.

I'm looking for economic, social and environmental benefits backed up by
specific cited research.

Thanks much!

Laura
