Imagine a world where the food you eat isn't just about convenience or appearance, but about understanding and connection. In today's episode, we explore why many of us are disconnected from our food, the myths that cloud our perceptions, and the surprising truth about what nature offers right outside our door. From dandelions to local farmer's markets, join us as we uncover the hidden stories behind what we eat and why it's time to rethink our relationship with food.

In this episode, we dive into the world of urban farming with Katie Kissel, Co-Chair of Unearthing Farm and Market in Atlanta, and explore how this hidden gem is redefining what  food can be to the average person and building a true community.

Unearthing isn't just an urban oasis; it's a model for sustainable living and community building. Katie shares the farm's journey from a neglected plot of land to a thriving hub of agricultural innovation and education. We discuss the challenges and triumphs of growing food sustainably, the importance of connecting young minds to agriculture through their internship program, and the surprising benefits of eating local produce.

This episode also features a tour of the farm (with video of cute baby goats). You can find the farm tour in the chapters.
