Grass Roots movement: Community-driven co-op could save Linden Leas Farm

摘要

If Jillian Foster's plan for community-shared agriculture works, it won't matter if the bank forecloses on the family farm in Linden, on the Northumberland shore of Nova Scotia. Members of Grass Roots Up Co-operative will own the cattle, because theyare pre-purchasing meat from cash-strapped Linden Leas Farm before it is butchered, securing their supply of naturally raised, grass-fed beef.
