How have Connecticut’s farms been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic? Marysol Castro tours Fairgate Farm, an urban volunteer-powered farm in Stamford. And, Chef Plum introduces you to local farmer, Farah Masani. Farah cultivates anywhere from one to seven acres of other people’s land—growing food for herself, restaurants, and the community. Interested in visiting some Connecticut farms? Farah recommends some favorites. Plus, Afro-Vegan author Bryant Terry’s new cookbook, Vegetable Kingdom, is a celebration of all that is vibrant and delicious in the plant word. We’ll talk to the author about his activism, local farms, and how his daughters, ancestors, and Hip Hop, inspire his cooking.
