088. The Teenager Using Hydroponics To Feed The World


Listen Later

Bailey Van Tassel interviews Steven Hoffen, a high-schooler who started a hydroponics non-profit that feeds over 33,000 people yearly in underserved populations. Steven went to Isreal in seventh grade and was inspired to make a film about women coming together to grow their own food with hydroponics. That quickly turned into his pursuit of using hydroponic systems to help people who are incarcerated, the elderly, and asylum seekers. Steven was named a CNN Hero and is on his way to creating something immensely dynamic, all with the power of food. He shares about what his towers do, how they work, and what his mission is.
