Fit To Eat Episode 50 Vifill Karlsson by Ivan Emke

Building a diverse food production system is just about the best rural development strategy possible. And vice versa. Today on "Fit to Eat," we test out that theory in Iceland, with teacher, researcher and rural development worker, Vifill Karlsson. We talk about attracting young farmers, enticing agri-tourists (and keeping them safe), supporting local production, the awkward urban-rural balance, and the importance of rural communities (and agriculture) to sovereignty and nationhood. And more. We even say a few nice things about big cities, in passing. The coffee is on. Join us.
