To Whom it May Concern:

I know Ed Fallon as a neighbor, urban farmer and former member of the Iowa House of Representatives. He is active in neighborhood activities and has provided advice to me on urban farm practices as well as lessons learned on book publishing.

I know Ed to be passionate and outspoken on climate issues as well as issues concerning our neighborhood. He has always extended me kindness and insightful advice, when asked. I also know him to be consistently caring about those whom he is closest to: family and close friends.

Finally, he is brutally honest, almost to a fault, which is rare right now.

Thank you,

Kirsten Anderson
