The Thin Green Line : The lady behind the Pie
After founding Pie Ranch, which bills itself as a "a rural center for urban renewal," Heisler also opened Mission Pie, a separate for-profit business that gets its ingredients from Pie Ranch and other small sustainable farms and offers occupational internships for at-risk youth. She explained that the idea behind Mission Pie was to bring the ideals of Pie Ranch and other places like it into the city and to put sustainable food within the geographical and budgetary reach of all San Franciscans. Mission Pie is not yet a certified green business, but it is a member of the Green Café Network.
