In this episode, Lynn Tonini interviews Hannah Hodgson Katzman, Associate Director of Family Harvest Farm in Martinez, California. Hannah described the mission of her organization, the John Muir Land Trust, which is to protect open spaces. Hannah's program - Family Harvest Farm - is under the John Muir Land Trust umbrella. They utilize 3.5 acres of urban open space for a program that hires youth aged out of foster care ages 18-24 on a part-time basis, teaches them about farming while mentoring them over a season, and donates and/or sells the produce to the local community.
