What happens when a wooden planter outside a window grows into a movement that transforms schools, hospitals, public spaces—and lives?

In this episode of the Sky Farm Island Podcast, we meet Gaby Vargas, a passionate urban gardener from Mexico City, whose 25-year journey into urban farming began with a single lettuce and a surprising realisation about how disconnected we are from the food we eat.

Gaby shares:

• The emotional and healing power of growing your own food
• How school gardens became a foundation for long-term change
• Why children connect so easily to soil, seeds, and seasons
• The “carrot lesson” that shifts how we value food
• Her vision for cities filled with microclimates, biodiversity, and compost culture

Tune in for a deeply personal and inspiring conversation about the power of urban gardening to create more resilient communities—and why kids might just be the best advocates for a better food future.
