Urban Farming in Amarillo: Nuke City Veg + Square Mile

Your browser doesn’t support HTML5 audio

A big, leafy-green high five to two of Amarillo's favorite urban farm-to-table advocates: Brady Clark, Executive Director of Square Mile Community Development, and Danny Melius, Founder & Market Gardener of Nuke City Veg.

High Plains Morning was pleased to host them for a conversation about conservation, a chat about chard, a throwdown about the low-down on the low-income San Jacinto neighborhood. (Okay, I'm going to stop now.)
