Empowering Sandtown Through Urban Farming

Fresh produce can be hard to come by in the city’s Sandtown neighborhood. That’s why chef Ausar Daniels has created a farm - to grow fruits and vegetables for the community and educate kids about plant science. He tells us about his plans to expand "The Greater Mondawmin Empowerment Project" into a food co-op and biocellar.
