Our guest today shares how he’s created a social enterprise that’s transforming communities one neighbourhood at a time… a journey born out of a desire to provide the best nutrition for his family.
Crop-Swap LA has grown exponentially since its inception, inspiring more and more people to grow their own fruits and vegetables in their backyards, whilst encouraging them to share what they don’t need with others… This small venture now provides food to local communities, those in need and has resulted in Jamiah being appointed as an advisor to the Mayor.
In this episode we discuss all this and more:
- How Crop-Swap LA is helping to address food shortage issues across the state
- Transforming front and backyards into urban gardens capable of supporting neighbourhoods, states and even nations worldwide
- Reconnecting plants and nature with humanity… why this is important and how Crop-Swap LA is playing its part in this
- Bringing technology into food growing and distribution via food boxes, delivery, pre-ordering and subscription
- Aquaponic gardening ideal for those living in apartments… meaning everyone can become an urban gardener
- The practice of Taoism and how it’s helped Jamiah personally, spiritually and in business
- How front yard garden installations can help reduce air pollution city, state and countrywide, diabetes and other social and economic issues
