The importance of urban agriculture
Le Devoir has a piece Tuesday on the importance of urban agriculture in at least keeping heirloom varieties going, even if it’s unrealistic to think we could feed everyone on the island by growing things locally.
But I still have never seen a Montreal melon, even if it gets mentioned every spring during the mid‑May planting frenzy.

There will be a planting of the Melons Wednesday at Blue Bonnets.

That has a pleasingly pagan sound.
