Just a single stalk of corn,
Nothing more;
Was there ever a stalk of corn
Cherished so before?
-Ellen P. Allerton

"May be true what I had heard,
Earth's a howling wilderness
Truculent with fraud and force,"
Said I, strolling through the pastures,
And along the riverside.
Caught among the blackberry vines,
Feeding on the Ethiops sweet,
Pleasant fancies overtook me:
I said, "What influence me preferred
Elect to dreams thus beautiful?"
The vines replied, "And didst thou deem
No wisdom to our berries went?"
-"Berrying" by Ralph Waldo Emerson

We all know that of the money we spend at the grocery store or in a restaurant, very little of that reaches the person who grew that food. When our foodshed is small, there are fewer people who need to make a profit in order to get the food from field to fork. A smaller foodshed flips our current system upside down, putting the majority of the money back into the pockets of the people who deserve it the most – those that are actually growing the food!
