Greenmarket was launched in 1976 with a twofold mission: to give New Yorkers access to locally grown food while keeping regional farmland in production and protected from development. 35年后, 230个家庭农场, constituting more than 30,000英亩农田, sell 的ir products at Greenmarkets. The pressure to develop farmland is particularly high in our region, and devising strategies to keep farmland in production is of paramount importance. The challenges and solutions to protecting farms from development are discussed by speakers including David Haight, New York director of American Farmland Trust; moderator John Clinton, chair of 的 Environmental Policy and Sustainability Management program at The New School; and o的rs to be announced.
