Land & Freedom: Talking Food Systems

Visiting local gardens, farmers markets, and other fresh produce projects in San Diego’s diverse urban neighborhoods, Land & Freedom speaks with residents that are taking advantage of the city’s reformed urban agriculture ordinances. Residents are finding alternatives to a food system that has historically distressed low ­income communities. Residents are eating healthier with produce they’ve grown themselves, using community gardens like they would use parks, and displaying respect for the neighborhoods they live in. Still, many people continue to struggle with the lack of affordable fresh produce readily available within neighborhoods and other resources to improve their lives.
