East New York Farms. A Urban Garden In A Food Desert

Reporter Milan Dupuy talks to Alexx Carcaces, an East New York Native who is the farm manager of a local Brooklyn based non-profit called East New York Farms. Alexx is a recent graduate of Farm School NYC, an urban agriculture institution that trains new experts in the fields of sustainable and urban agriculture. Alexx’s parents are immigrants from Honduras and their involvement with
food justice and farming goes deeper than helping the community, it is also a means of connecting with the land and their Indigenous ancestors.
