I'll probably get reamed for saying this but here goes: A giant cranberry bog in Rockerfeller Center. A giant heap of real pumpkins, Indian corn and butternut squash as a decorative display on 34th and Park. Cabbage- and squash-festooned planters throughout the city all year round. Then you hear all these stories of neighborhoods not having enough access to affordable fresh produce and healthy, nutritious eating alternatives. Something's not right here.
