South L.A. doesn't have easy access to fresh food. Jamiah Hargins wants to change that by turning lawns into microfarms.
He wants to empower underserved communities while giving them access to fresh food by planting small, sustainable farms in lots across L.A.
“I'd like to create a culture of economic sustainability,” Hargins said. “I want to create an expectation that people do something better with their space than water grass.”
