This week’s guest, Nicole Landers (aka The Eco Urbanist), is a real inspiration to so, so many people. She’s the founder of Community Healing Gardens (CHG), with a mission to foster community and to educate people on the importance of growing food, through community gardening. Their goal is to create sustainable communities which flourish, through the building of Urban Garden Programs with the local communities, the schools and also Community centers, throughout L.A. Listen in as Nicole explains how CHG goes about executing these fantastic programs to really help to grow America, in a green way.
Today we dig into Nicole’s deep commitment to transforming people’s lives with Urban Gardening and we also discuss the kind of impact that CHG has had on the local communities, in just less than two years. Nicole, who’s motto is ‘All things grow with love’ talks about her really awesome vision for the future of the USA and also for the rest of the world! Listen in now, to find out more about Nicole, CHG and their really awesome community projects.

I love the world of food and beverage, everything about it, it’s soo damn sexy! Every time we eat and drink it ignites us sensually…the look, texture, taste, smell, sound all in a unique combination, encapsulating a moment in time. The act of sharing a meal with friends, chatting, eating, and drinking together is so forking perfect. It is a feeling that echoes a sense that All Is Good! Very, Very good!
