This teacher's favorite crop is organically grown citizens! This is the poorest congressional district in America and turned into the greenest. He even gets grandma involved. Please watch this TEDx by Stephen Ritz at TEDxTraversecity, 2013 on why kids should not have to leave their neighborhood to live, work, and enjoy life. We are living in an age of Ninetendo versus Nature. Sustainability is an entry point---we need a multiplier effect. This is his harvest in the South Bronx. They have used their farmer’s markets proceeds to support orphanges. He doesn’t Yankee fans he wants broccoli fans! He is teaching kids how to shop….live greener….support themselves….very inspiring!
