Food has always brought people together. It also connects urban and<br />
rural communities and revitalizes local economies. Nothing proves this<br />
more than the New York City Greenmarket, a program to help farmers<br />
throughout the Hudson Valley of New York sell their produce regionally<br />
and in New York City. In recognition of the economic and environmental<br />
benefits of local agriculture, <strong>OSI</strong> presented its <strong>2005</strong> land conservation<br />
award to Marian S. Heiskell and Lys McLaughlin of the Council on the<br />
Environment of New York City, which started Greenmarket in 1976.
