Almost one year ago, Asiyah, homeschooling mother of four, took her children on a field trip to visit St. Vincent de Paul’s (SVdP) Urban Farm located next to the downtown Phoenix dining room. What she didn’t anticipate was how this small plot of land that grows food to feed those in need would greatly impact the lives of her children.

He tells Greg about the purpose he had for writing his latest book and some of the lessons he’s learned during his years of farming.

Greg gets a chance to talk about a serious social sustainability topic when he interviews Michael Matheson Miller, the Director-Producer of Poverty Inc.
