In this Our Changing Climate environmental video essay, I explore the what role Whole Foods Market plays in the split between industrialized organic farming and local small-scale market gardening and urban farming. I discuss the history and implications of an exploding organic market and offer up some conclusions about where Whole Foods stands and where the organic industry might be going.
