Ron Finley: Planting a food forest in South Central LA

I love seeing this, what a great way to bring fresh produce into the inner city.

I’ve met a lot of people that are trying to take back their communities. Each year we give away produce from our garden to those in need, it’s a great feeling and it provides them with fresh chemical free produce.  Depending on where you live, you might not have fresh produce available.

Occasionally I scout out grocery stores to see what they have on the shelves, I’ve noticed that in some stores fresh produce isn’t readily available.

Being an art lover you know I checked out the embroidery on one of his sleeves and the back of his denim jacket, love it! If you blink, you’ll miss it… 😉 I’m thinking this was a custom made jean jacket. You see the threads hanging from the jacket. Which makes me wonder, why in the world did the person leave those threads?

Have you seen the documentaries “The Farm” and “The Garden”?
About the South Central Farmers – in California?

I watched both of them and my eyes filled with tears when I watched it!
