Millennials are saying "so long" to the country club and "hello" to the farm.

Many so-called agrihoods — short for "agricultural neighborhoods" — are cropping up around the US, and they're aimed at farm-to-table-loving millennials.
Loosely defined by the Urban Land Institute as master-planned housing communities with working farms as their focus, agrihoods have ample green space, barns, and outdoor community kitchens. Some boast greenhouses and rows and rows of fruit trees. The homes are typically built to high environmental standards — think solar panels and composting.
Agrihoods are designed to appeal to young, active families who love to eat healthy and spend time outdoors — and they're not off the grid.
I can see this. I don't consider myself a Millennial but I'd get more enjoyment out of a farm than a golf course by far.

Buncha fricking hippies.

That's not a farm. It's called a backyard garden.

There's already a few apartment complexes in the BR area with a communal garden.
I consider it a plus.

Golf sucks
Golf is the pinnacle of man's ability to play against himself and the land.

Hold the phone. I thought millenials couldn't find jobs...but they were at the country club until now?

Works well if everyone pitches in, but I can see that being a real disaster if a few people are keeping the garden up while a lot of others use it for convenient produce shopping

Just seems like a place where a Trillhog has ample hiding and raping locations.
a golf course is open. nowhere for those kinds of people to hide.

The University Club says hello.
They can't supply enough lots out there.

Good. Whatever keeps me from getting paired up and the fairways open.
