Urban Farmer Overcomes the Houston Heat

Synopsis

In this episode of Voices from the Field, urban farmer Pasha Angelle of Healing Den Farms in Houston, Texas, discusses how farming realities led her to shift gears and produce microgreens literally in-house rather than crops out in the field in the brutal Texas climate. This risk-management decision has expanded her experience and led her to a new customer base.  This podcast is produced by the National Center for Appropriate Technology through the ATTRA Sustainable Agriculture program, under a cooperative agreement with USDA Rural Development.This podcast was also made possible in part by funding from the Southern RiskManagement Education Center, USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture,through the University of Arkansas.  Related ATTRA Resources: ·        Urban Agriculture ·        Local Food Systems Other Resources: ·        Healing Den Contact Justin Duncan at justind@ncat.org.  Please complete a brief survey to let us know your thoughts about the content ofthis podcast.  You can get in touch with
