This is a hot topic right now, and there are numerous resources on the web. One of the best places to start is the web site for Growing Power, which you should take the time to explore. You can also check out their blog.
But Growing Power isn't the only game in town. Although this is a little out of date now, the Milwaukee Urban Agriculture Network site is a good source of links and background - another good one to explore. Walnut Way Conservation Corp is also very active in the area of urban agriculture, so make sure to pay their site a visit too.
Some questions to consider: in what ways are these organizations presenting urban agriculture as a potential solution to social/environmental justice in Milwaukee? What are some obstacles, barriers, critiques, controversies, or challenges they face?
