| Summary: | Agriculture offers a wide array of benefits to the urban ecosystem. In the United States, urban agricultural activities are rapidly increasing, both in sheer quantity and in the form in which it is manifest. This paper explores the role of normative frameworks in urban agriculture policy at the municipal level. Case study analysis of three cities − Baltimore, Maryland; Chicago, Illinois; and Minneapolis, Minnesota – seeks first to identify whether or not a normative framework is strategically employed and second, to assess the impact of the norm, or its absence, on urban agricultural initiatives. |
