Pizza farm
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A pizza farm or pizza garden is a circular region of land partitioned into plots shaped like pizza wedges.
A pizza farm's segments may produce ingredients of a pizza, e.g. wheat (to represent the crust), tomatoes or herbs, or things representing those, e.g. Cattle, for cheese or beef.
This has grown into a significantly expanding cottage industry in the United States, more as a tourist and specialty niche than as a serious supplier of pizza ingredients to the food industry at large[1].
[edit] History
The self-proclaimed first pizza farm was started in 1993, by Darren Schmall in Madera, California. From there both independent pizza farms and franchise clones of his own farm have proliferated to number in the hundreds in the United States alone[2].
Meanwhile, this has also become a novelty style for organizing one's own garden[3].
