08: Sowing Hope: Using Gardens to Create A Better Fresno with Chris De Leon

Chris joins the pod to chat more in depth about the current state of food insecurity in the agricultural capital of America, what kind of dignity we instill in each other and ourselves when we grow our own food, and why the existence of community gardens mean we all thrive.
