AGRICULTURE AND THE SUBURBS

Farming in the Shadow of Suburbia
... Jane Katz, Regional Review, Spring 1997, Vol.7, No. 2 (Federal Reserve Bank of Boston)

"As the city has closed in on rural communities, preserving farmland has taken on new urgency. Rather than see farmers moving out when nonfarmers move in, many hope that agricultural land will be increasingly intermixed with commercial and residential areas."

The CenterEdge Project


"The CenterEdge Project is building a broad coalition to educate as many people as possible about disparities created by our long-term pattern of development in each metropolitcan area of Connecticut. It will give people who live in very different settings the chance to discover surprising facts about shared problems and common self-interests."
