Here are some of the radio stories I recorded and produced for KKFI Kansas City 90.1 FM. At the time these recording were made, I was associate director of Cultivate Kansas City (formerly the Kansas City Center for Urban Agriculture). I’m a little fuzzy on the exact air dates, so there may be some mistakes in the show attributions.
Have fun listening to some the beautiful people and ideas who helped put Kansas City on the urban agriculture map.
