It's easy to grow things in this climate, better than having them shipped East, which is now the case. It's much better to have local produce, than to ship things across the land. It would require a dietary change--- food that my grandparents ate: chicken, potatoes, onions, carrots, etc. These are all possible in most cold climates. The Bay Area is rich in farms,

And who knows what the future might bring. These temporary efforts could provide the momentum needed for the development of more permanent urban agriculture. How wonderful!
