“Urban Farming w/ Crop Swap LA”

In this episode, our host, Dr. Brittany Friedman, sat down with Crop Swap LA’s founder & executive director, Jamiah Hargins, to discuss the intersections of urban farming, food insecurity, and sustainability. The two discuss Crop Swap LA initiatives to address food insecurity and provide healthy food options for LA neighborhoods. In the Truth in 10, our correspondent, Olivia, takes us IRL to one of Crop Swap LA’s volunteer events on an early March Sunday morning. We hear from some volunteers about what inspired them to volunteer and, of course, answer the hard-hitting question: What’s your favorite fruit or vegetable?
