What kind of HOMEGROWN are you?

Cube Farmer, Dirt Under My Fingernails City Slicker

Fill in the blank:

I want to learn all I can about urban farming and how to encorporate "slow foods" in urban society

A bit about me:

I am affixed on researching anything on the homegrown revolution. I am starting a sustainable business that would encorporate urban farming with the sole motive to teach urban youth the how tos of the land, even if in a city setting.
I recently moved out of my studio apartment in New York City and into a 3 1/2 acre home in rural Vermont... I got that "back to the land itch." I've inherited 2 chickens, Lucy & Pepper, and a rooster named Sparky. I also have been granted a huge project of remodeling andtaming a 550 square foot garden.... To be con't....

Latest greatest meal cooked at home:

Spiced strawbery preserves.
BBQ tofu and saute'd miso kale and bok choy over rice noodles
