Today is saturday and I finished my stint at the Bank I work at this morning. I couldn't help but think of what to expect on Tuesday when I begin farming at Brother Nature Produce farm in the NoCo neighborhood of Detroit. With all that is going on in the neighborhood it will be a great experience for the next month and a half to be a part of the new industry that will grown the city of Detroit once again. This experience will help me understand how important it is for Detroit to not be that one horse town anymore. I would just like to know for my first blog post, does anyone think other wise if Urban Farming can be one of our city's new industries?
Hi my name is Lance Yatooma, I am a student at the University of Michigan. A native Detroiter and urban farm enthusiast. I became fascinated by the aspect of farming in Detroit when I was a Architecture/Urban Planning major. I believe the city can re-image itself as a hub for farming, and to be the gold standard in it. In this blog I will go over theory's of what Detroit can do to raise it's potential level of farming. Including my day by day experience working on the farm.
