Increasing media attention to urban agriculture has mirrored the public's

media in creative ways to advance support for urban agriculture. Moderated by
food writer Andy Smith, this panel focuses on the relationship between media,
advocacy, and the urban agriculture movement. The panel includes an artist and
filmmaker, the producer of an internet broadcast network focusing on urban
farming, an organizer of a farm boot camp for urban chefs, an expert on the
internet and agriculture, and the publisher of a food magazine.

Location: The New School, Kellen Gallery, 13th Street and Fifth Avenue, NYC
