Long abstractMuch of our food does not taste good—and not just because apples have lost their crunch. The food we eat in the West is produced largely through an industrial model of agriculture. Larger and larger farms produce more and more of the one product, whether cattle or wheat, apricots or almonds, or-anges or lemons. In the process, agricultural land is robbed of its nutrients, and animals and plants their dignity. But eve-rywhere people, like Robert Pekin from Food Connect, are innovating with ways of working with the land, animals and others. At Food Connect, we’re not just modifying, we’re com-pletely reinventing the business of how food should be done. We’re saying that the old model is obsolete and we have to invent new ones. We have to restore ecologi-cal biodiversity back into our farming landscapes but we need a marketplace that recognizes and rewards the farmers who do this, and that encourages more farmers to do more of it.
