Episode 12  is part 2 of the conversation about OG Botanical Brotha, George Washington Carver, featuring botanist of today: Derek Haynes aka The Crazy Botanist. Colah B Tawkin and Derek got to talking DIRTY about soil because GWC was the Iyanla Vanzant of soil as he was out there FIXIN it! Our beloved ancestor was in them southern streets pushin his Agricultural School on wheels traveling from one busted farm to the next and Pimpin 'em like Xzibit! You may have never benefited from the resources available from your local Cooperative Extension Service; Colah and Derek explain why you should and never forget who you have to thank for that!
