For many years, people in American cities have depended on farmers in rural areas to grow fruits and vegetables. (32)But now, a new generation of farmers is beginning to plant crops in urban areas. Sean Conroe is a college student. Amber Banks is a teacher. They both grew up farming and gardening. Now they want to start a farm in the middle of Seattle, Washington. Sean Conroe created a website to get volunteers and donations. (33) Within a week, they were offered a plot of land between two houses. He says 20 volunteers have worked for six weekends to turn the grassy land into a farm. They call their project Alleycat Acres. (34)The Alleycats have harvested about 90 kilograms of produce so far. They have donated most of it to local food banks that feed hungry people in Seattle. One of the goals of the urban farm is to show city people the joys of growing food. The Alleycats invite school groups to the farm to help out. And Amber Banks says they want the people who get food donations to learn how to work the soil. Sean Conroe says Alleycat Acres is expanding to other empty areas of Seattle. So are a lot of other urban farming groups. Seattle has declared 2010 "The Year of Urban Agriculture." But the growth of these farms is limited. That is because Seattle, like a lot of other cities, has restrictions on urban farms. (35)Now the City Council is considering changing those laws.
32. What can we learn about the new generation of farmers from the passage?
33. What happened after Sean Conroe issued the information on the Internet?
