This week we are #blessed to be joined by Troy’s own Dara of 2nd Street Farm. We talk about recent protests in Troy against police brutality, continued organizing around Barker Park and the community that utilizes that space, the events in Kenosha this week following the police shooting of Jacob Blake and the MAGA teen who murdered two protesters. On the sunny side of life, we chat about Montreal’s enormous rooftop greenhouse and the promise of urban gardening.
