Carolyn Steel on Food and the Shape of Cities



Carolyn Steel is an architect who looks t food networks. She argues that our current food networks alienate us from food and cause us to devalue it. I have found that my current mission of trying to grow as much of my own food on my not-large suburban garden has profoundly changed my relationship to food. I was inspired by economy and pleasure to grow vegetables but I found I valued and respected every morsel of food in a way I had never done before.
