Issa Throwback! We bringing back this episode to celebrate Black Botanists Week 2021.

Join us on Part 2 of 2  for a discussion on George Washington Carver! We're not here for the peanut lessons you learned in school either. Colah B Tawkin has a convo with modern day Botanical Brotha and chocolate botanist, Derek. 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!
