A guerrilla gardener in South Central LA | Ron Finley

from TED Talks Daily

Ron Finley plants vegetable gardens in South Central LA -- in abandoned lots, traffic medians, along the curbs. Why? For fun, for defiance, for beauty and to offer some alternative to fast food in a community where "the drive-thrus are killing more people than the drive-bys." Hosted on Acast.
