26.5 Million Americans Live in a Food Desert
It isn’t just small towns and rural areas that need to be reanimated.
Ron Finley lives in South Central LA where obesity rates are 5 times higher, poverty pervasive and real food practically unavailable.
Ron says, “the drive-thrus are killing more people than the drive-bys.”
What did LA do? The city cited Ron, and ordered him to remove his gardens–unbelievably, they issued a warrant.
Why?
Because some NIMBY’ite complained!
“Gardening is my graffiti,” Ron responds. “Let soil be your canvas. Become a gangsta gardener…”
