Farm Oasis Shrinking as Suburbia Grows

I was looking for some good news to post on this glorious Easter day and homed in on this story in the Kansas City Star. At first I thought it would be about a working farm, surviving as suburbia surrounds it. But it’s really about a farm being completely eaten up by suburbia, one acre sold to luxury condo developers at a time. Not that I completely blame the family for looking out for their financial interests. But not the optimistic, sustainable farm story I like to see.
