the evolution of a program designed to provide fresh food to those facing food insecurities.
by gillian hall & jennifer meislin
our idea was to share a story about food deserts and the efforts to mitigate them by introducing the program plant a row for the hungry. this podcast illustrates the evolution of a program from its very beginnings to its present, documenting the challenges associated with taking on a task as daunting as feeding the hungry. food deserts are a common problem faced throughout the united states, and this program helps to alleviate the impacts they have on disenfranchised communities.
