“…Zoning is sometimes criticized for creating barriers to urban agriculture in terms of both vegetable and animal production, encouraging unhealthful food options, and harming farmland protection in rural areas and on the urban fringe (Caton- Campbell, 2004;Daniels & Payne-Riley, 2017;Horst, McClintock, & Hoey, 2017;Raja, Born, & Russell, 2008;Schindler, 2014;Soma & Wakefield, 2011;Zapp, 2016). In urban areas, small grocery stores and urban agriculture can be inhibited by zoning, including prohibitions on the sale of fruit and vegetables in outdoor stands or markets, gardening or farming in residential districts, and limitations on the type and number of farm animals (Caton- Campbell, 2004;Desjardins, Lubczynski, & Xuereb, 2011;Feldstein, 2013;Horst et al, 2017;Raja et al, 2008;Schindler, 2014).…”
