Vertical farming isn't about growing tomatoes indoors. It's about redesigning the metabolic logic of cities — from consumers of food to producers of it. That's a civilizational shift hiding inside a hydroponic system.

Digesting Food Studies—Episode 116: Social Economy of Food
https://rss.com/podcasts/digesting-food-studies/2555303/

Sharing, gifting, and informal economies have been around forever, and they might be seeing a new resurgence that offers promise for the long-term.

This episode helps re-think and reorient ourselves towards creating integrated value exchanges beyond just the financial kind. Alexia Moyer provides gifts from Sandro Botticelli and Catherine Parr Traill, and guest editor Irena Knezevic talks about “The social and informal economy of food” issue of Canadian Food Studies. (https://doi.org/10.15353/cfs-rcea.v6i3).

Finally, Christophe Dubois shares his thoughts on social gastronomy and Mary Anne Martin’s use of feminist theory to explore urban agriculture.

"One of MOUA’s first priorities was building a complete picture of urban agriculture across the city, and making that information available to the public. The office created the Urban Agriculture Data Explorer Hub, an interactive platform that maps food production across all five boroughs. The tool has cataloged 2,580 sites so far: #SchoolGardens, #UrbanFarms, #CommunityGardens, #IndoorAgriculture businesses, and underutilized city-owned land. Users can sort by borough, zip code, land management type, and food production status, then click on individual locations for more detail. The platform will eventually also track wellness programs, commercial activity, and climate mitigation efforts. Its crowdsourced design allows community members to contribute information that official records miss, creating a more complete picture over time."

Three Years In, New York’s #UrbanAgriculture Office Has Delivered

by Haley Schusterman, January 20, 2026

"Three years in, the office is delivering on its full mandate. It built its own relationships with community leaders and advocates, launched education programs connecting students to working #farms, opened pathways for #SmallFarmers to sell to city institutions, mapped the city’s urban agriculture landscape, and pushed for procurement reform that could redirect how the city spends its food dollars. The office is working to change how eight million #NewYorkers grow, buy, and think about food, using urban agriculture as a lever for #ClimateAction, #EnvironmentalJustice, #FoodAccess, workforce development, and economic #resilience."
