“You see I'm an
artist. Gardening is my graffiti, I grow my art.”
Ron Findley
Depressed at the lack
of availability of real food in South Central LA ("The drive through's are killing more people than the drive by's"), Ron Finley started
growing an Urban Garden upon the public waste land beside his house. Having overcome opposition from the city authorities (yes really) he's now aiming
to start a revolution on the thousands of acres of Los Angles' waste
land, changing peoples perception of food along the way. Very
inspiring project!
