The Atlantic niche

The Atlantic seems to be carving out a niche of trying to have "provocative" stories regarding food. Their latest: The Great Grocery Smackdown: Will Walmart, not Whole Foods, save the small farm and make America healthy?

Walmart single-handedly save small farms? In a word, no. But I'm not necessarily against them trying to be a better part of the food system as long as it is not local-washing and/or misrepresentation.

In other news, the Ann Arbor Chronicle covers the Local Food Summit and SNRE professor co-authors article on small farms, biodiversity and food production.
