The area was a food desert with only convenience stores and fast-food restaurants to serve the needs of locals.

Today, Allen's organization helps develop community food systems across the country. An eco-classic in the making, The Good Food Revolution is the story of Will's personal journey, the lives he has touched, and a grassroots movement that is changing the way our nation eats.…
