Governor Rick Snyder covered topics ranging from urban farming to "fracking" in his special address on energy and the environment today.
He said the state should do more to deal with blight and encourage urban farming in cities with lots of vacant land.
The governor said too much abandoned property in Flint, Detroit, and other cities is going to waste when it could be put to a new use.
“And all I’ve seen in my two years as governor is a lot of discussion about right-to-farm, and urban farming,” said Snyder.
