The Verge has one of the best video teams I have ever seen. There documentaries beat any documentary on TV in terms of editing and setting the mood. Incredible. They should make longer episodes.
I love how The Verge is increasingly pushing this kind of fantastic content. It's fascinating to see glimpses of how technology can revolutionize industries. I really hope this helps small farmers make more capital in a market that is really stacked against them. These types of ideas could break modern monopolies.
Great video, although I do prefer the Small Empires format. I was a little disappointed that it wasn't longer, but the production of these videos is still at television quality, if not even better. I only wish I could join The Verge.
Thumbs up on the business model and the ethics of your vision. But why did you leave Kansas City and the Midwest? Did you decide the West Coast was more receptive to this change in production and distribution models? While it take another 20 years for the Heartland to accept the necessity of this kind of change?
That was a great video but I'm surprised no talk about google fiber talk I would assume that would have brought the entire thing together, tech and people connected by high speed affordable internet.
The US has 350 cities have a population over 100,000, 104 cities are over 500,000, and 52 cities have over a million people. How do they get fed? We have a growing season of between 3 to 8 months long, with specific crops only ripening over a 2 month span. Who eats corn in May? Tomatoes in June? Broccoli in July? Only because of shipped food does this work. What do these locals sell in December-March, and how do we eat for 4 months if we only buy from them?

The production value of verge videos is so high. It's fantastic.

Another great video by The Verge. Thanks for putting time into these.
Another fantastic insight from The Verge!
Another great video. Well done all involved.
Another awesome vid by the verge, you rock guys
Brilliant video, Thank you for making it.
Surprisingly, more inspiring than Small Empires series
The ending frame before "The Verge" logo was so deep.

Real good series. I am curious about the Kansas City theme. may have to look into that.
excellent work

it's funny video to watch after reading "meat is bad" not that old feature from the verge. especially that part about wasting productive land on cows
The quality was good but the episodes need to explain what they are reporting on a lot better. Its not clear what exactly ag does
give a tip of the hat to the colorist and cinematographer please!
Obviously nobody is saying we shouldn't ship ANY food. To imply otherwise is to set up a strawman.
Is it more ethical to kill them and not eat them?
As I invite you over for a nice Chianti; While I try a new fava bean recipe.
kind of confused on that the point this video was trying to bring?
You rock! Hope you introduce this form of business to third world countries which are developing like india,Vietnam and maybe Yemen...
Google Fiber!
Animals are yummy.
It maybe better. but it still not ethical to kill animals for food.
False. It is ethical although you may find it immoral.
