03: Urban Gardening, Food Deserts, & Ag Education in Schools
Tiayonna Liska joins episode three of the Raising the Barn Podcast. She is the owner of Carolina Garden Coaching in Raleigh, North Carolina. Tiayonna and I are old childhood friends and we reconnected a few weeks ago and discovered that we both want to help people know their food.
During our conversation, Tiayonna shares her passion for inspiring people to take control of their green space and her perspective on urban gardening, food deserts, and Ag education in schools.
Some of the questions we chat about:
What are the benefits of growing your own food
How can gardening help counter a lot of the struggles that many folks are facing when it comes to food insecurity, food deserts, food related health issues, etc.
How is she using community-building as a part of her marketing strategy?
Should gardening be taught in schools alongside Ag education?
Is there room in today’s society for both gardening and farming?
Throughout Women’s History Month, The Farmer’s Feed will be celebrating and sharing stories of amazing Women in Ag and I’m so thrilled to kickoff this celebration with Tiayonna’s episode.
