I guess no one remembers truck farms, so a new term had to be invented to cover the couple of thousand folks "playing" farmer and "buying local."

Want to buy local and support the reestablishment of truck farms around major US cities? Fine.

1. Plow under your suburban homestead and a few thousand just like it that took the place of farms from the 1950s to the 1980s and into the 90s and sell it at a loss for farmland.

2. Move into the city and give up one of your cars and one motor scooter.

3. Don't buy reasonably prices tomatoes, strawberries, melons in winter from Chile, Guatemala, Argentina. or cheap roses from Columbia.

4. Learn how to "can" tomatoes and fruits as your great-grandmother used to.
