🌱 Food Deserts, Social Justice, and DIY Solutions

Did you know nearly 18.8 million Americans live in areas without reliable access to affordable, nutritious food? These so-called 'food deserts' highlight pressing issues of social justice, equity, and health disparities.

In this episode of Outreach with Reggie, we explore the social impact of food deserts and how communities are taking activism into their own hands through urban gardens, public fridges, and grassroots food justice initiatives. Reggie shares his personal story of helping to create a community garden at his old group home, emphasizing how local activism and small-scale solutions can spark meaningful change.

Join us as we dive into the challenges of food insecurity and the inspiring, community-driven actions that promote social justice and wellbeing for all.
