Farmers and Food Deserts

Abstract

Kansas farmers produce much of the nation’s crops including wheat, beef, corn and sorghum, yet many of these farmers live more than 10 miles from a grocery store, placing them in food deserts. This story shows how anyone can be a farmer and anyone can provide fresh food for their family through community gardening and farmer’s markets.
