I'm going to connect more with the guy from India. To discuss working with him to bring more #CulturalCrops from his native lands & start growing more of them here. I'm huge on increasing #FoodSecurity for all & we have a lot of #GlobalSouth #diaspora here so growing more cultural food crops is big in my books.
Also, with accelerated #ClimateChange - it's good to look at cultural food crops that can withstand not getting a lot of water.
He is part of a local Indian cricket team & they're interested in food security projects here 😀💚

He met me at community orchard.

Morning transplanting is done 👩‍🌾💚👍
There's bok choy, sui choy, Chinese mustard greens & baby bok choy.
All transplanted to remediated soil area - it used to be lawn grass with crappy soil with too much clay. Now, I'm growing food on it 😁
