    SO awesome and inspirational!

  2. I read Farm City out loud to my family. So much fun. But Long Beach is not as progressive and sustainable as the city would like the world to think. Please support our efforts to bring urban agriculture (including chickens and goats) to Long Beach.

    • Farm City is great!. Our next episode (airs February 14th) is in Long Beach! We talk with Jimmg Ng, director of a CSA in Long Beach that feeds a number of local, low-income families and provides jobs training.

  3. Great episode! Novella is so inspiring. I’m ready to get my hands dirty and start gardening!

  4. This is so inspiring! I also work with the underserved, Washington Heights NYC, with the cancer survivor population. So ordering Novella’s book!

    THANK YOU!
