Memphis Metropolis

Rethinking the Role of Agriculture in Real Estate Development. With Daron Joffee and Marlon Foster.


Listen Later

Daron Joffee, also known as Farmer D, visits Memphis Metropolis to discuss how incorporating agricultural uses such as farms, gardens, and farmers markets into "agrihoods" (agriculture-based neighborhoods) can promote land conservation and the farming sector while also benefiting residents through a greater sense of community. We were also joined by Marlon Foster, executive director of Knowledgequest in South Memphis, an early proponent and practitioner of the agrihood concept through the Greenleaf Learning Farm.
