Our favorite critical food politics voice, and Maverick Farmer, Tom Philpott will be discussing his new book tonight at 7.30 pm Eastern. Go to https://facebook.com/BloomsburyUSA/ to join the live conversation. In our view, food and energy have much in common in terms of sustainability, sovereignty, and actions we organize in our communities. For example, the Burton Street Community Peace Gardens and Bountiful Cities, both in Asheville, NC are growing food to feed the community, and growing the support systems, one of which is incorporating solar in their missions to grow capacity and knowledge.
