Neelum Sharma: Food Not Lawns in Los Angeles

04:12 | Ryanne Hodson | Dec 12th, 2007 2:18pm |

Neelam Sharma is the Programs Director for CSU, Community Services Unlimited, an organization empowering South Central Los Angeles residents to eat and grow healthy food. The “Food Not Lawns” attitude towards neighborhoods, I must admit, is infectious. After hanging out with urban and suburban farmers in the last year, we see people watering grass and we gasp. What a waste! CSU encourages and empowers folks to start thinking this way by teaching backyard gardening and reclaiming un-used urban space for food production. Check out their other projects in our previous video Community Services Unlimited: Rocking LA with Food and Beauty.
