Great Vid..... OMG I use to see him all the time in the crenshaw area but never knew what he was doing for the community. This is crazy i know exactly where his location is, I use to pass by there all the time, I lived in his area for over 35 years. I recently moved to Lubbock TX 4 months ago and watching this made me home sick....... I hate that I cant grow alot of my veggies and herb out here right now........................ Im really upset I didnt get a chance to meet him before I moved........grrrr!!!!! peace and blessing
People should have a look at how there using ancient technics in Kenya to green there river banks again and to stop the flood water from going straight to the sea,they build a cement wall that catches the sand and the sand filters and holds the water in and stops it from evaporation,it is transforming the land scape,it's awesome.
Love it... if everyone did this we would reduce food shortages, we could barter with each other and raise a few chickens, quails ( suitable for suburbs as people don't even know they are there) and ducks. Well done.. G'day from Australia 🦘🐾🐨
I noticed I have more bumble bees and wasps that pollinate than bees. The wasps get territorial if they think you are taking out their plants too early. The lady bugs get upset if you take out the dead plants they want to wait out the winter in.
Anyway we can get the video I am appreciative it beats a blank where is your video? Can you show us a sample of your videoing for the viewers who are looking to learn from you brother !You to man show us come on we ready we wait and we waiting for the lesson of the day to get together a come on! Do it do it now hey come on do it now hip earth educate us train a show us so we can be ready to do the be the best we can be through your tutelage !Just pissing me off when people who don’t got shit out there on screen cast so much negative comments but those who are doing something anything better than a blank which is nothing I appreciate this video been educated by what this man is doing but whoever is filming thank you thank you for putting it out there and perhaps the next time when you are there you do a better job waiting for it looking forward to it thank you for sharing your comment woke my ass up to how ignorant people are commenting negatively about some positive that’s being done what’s wrong with you get it together either with us or you’re against that so where do you stand? just pisses me off when people who don’t got shit out there on screen cast so much negative comments for those who are doing something anything better than a blank which is nothing I appreciate this video being educated by what this man is doing but whoever is filming thank you thank you for putting it out there and perhaps the next time when you are there you do a better job waiting for it looking forward to it thank you for sharing your comment woke my ass up to how ignorant people are to comment negatively about some positive that’s being done what’s wrong with you get it together either with us or you’re against that so where do you stand
Love what your doing. I live In a small town that has been neglected for years. I want to bring it back . Having street gardens. It has been very difficult to get people motivated what are your thoughts. We will have a new supervisor soon I want to get him involved. Your motivation inspired me.
THAT ARE FOOD BE OUR MEDICINE AND THAT OUR MEDICINE BE OUR FOOD . God created and give us the plants and herbs as our medicine and food , God didn't created the Pharmaceuticals and the med schools or Hospitals . If we eat right we shouldn't get sick . our body will have a balance and balance in our body is health.
I have some suggestions. Employ grey water recovery system in one of the local houses. If done correctly, the water would pose no health health risks either to the plants or humans who consume them. In Germany, city councils provide public lands and buildings for urban bee keepers. Your project would benefit enormously if you could associate with urban bee keepers.
***** Home Owners Association. in my city even the cheapest neighborhood has an HOA that regulates the plants in the common areas and lawns. Or, you can pay a fine, or they can put a lien on your home for the fines. It's a racket.
+Daniel Botwood Here in Las Vegas and I know other communities around the country, if an individual purchases a property that has an HOA, it is mandatory to join as ownership of the property. A person must join and pay dues for the 'upkeep' of common areas, and possibly other items (like pool, trash, etc). In LV, most are just for the common area upkeep and any signage. AND, these are a racket. if you don't pay dues, and other fines, they can levy liens on your home. In 2009 an HOA in KY forced a woman out of her home (who had owned it outright since 2007) the fees were menial like $48/year and she said she did not want to join. The total owed at the time was 288$ and they took her to court. The HOA owns her house, but did not evict her. Just ridiculous.
You're a "giver" Ron. Thanks.
This is great work! See the need and act! Don't wait to be told what to do.....just do it!
Wow, There are actually people who disliked this video. Smh. Haters will hate. Go 'head brother Ron. Do it!!

Thank you Ron Finley I've been thinking about planting my own fruits, vegetables and herbs.
friend him on facebook. i ran into him yesterday and did that. What a beautiful being he is!!
Go Ron Finley!!!! Go!!!
Y’all are in the most awesome area for growing anything you want.
This is truly wonderful!

OMG that chard!!! How much does he water all of this? What an awesome man - visionary, making a difference. I'm going to buy seeds tomorrow.
What a brilliant man!!! I am inspired to start my own garden.
Nice..I grew up watching my mom in her garden we lived in the suburbs too.
Love it... if everyone did this we would reduce food shortages, we could barter with each other and raise a few chickens, quails ( suitable for suburbs as people don't even know they are there) and ducks. Well done.. G'day from Australia 🦘🐾🐨

I noticed I have more bumble bees and wasps that pollinate than bees. The wasps get territorial if they think you are taking out their plants too early. The lady bugs get upset if you take out the dead plants they want to wait out the winter in.
At the end there is a bird behind Ron. ❤️
I'm on a mission to find us who are urban farming
You found one!
These post Covid times is really time to grow our own FOOD 👁️👁️
vertical filming should be illegal
I was going to say that, but you beat me to it. But it's a pretty good video.

This is COOL!

How do you keep the animals from eating up the veggies?
Life is going to change . LETS FUCKIN GO FAM
mint leaves and lima beans...yummy

When I visit Southern CA, I see them supposedly watering the grass and the water is running down the gutters. Grass = useless. Garden = food.
Funny that the ad before the video is a roundup commercial. SMH
yeah but what do you do about water?
i couldn't find him on there :(
How can I get in contact with Ron?
How are things going with the drought in California?
funny how I start this video with a PaPa Johns Commercial!
I can't like that statement enough.
Unless you have an HOA, LOL
***** Home Owners Association. in my city even the cheapest neighborhood has an HOA that regulates the plants in the common areas and lawns. Or, you can pay a fine, or they can put a lien on your home for the fines. It's a racket.
I thought that regarding the right of association, no one may be forced into an association.
+Daniel Botwood Here in Las Vegas and I know other communities around the country, if an individual purchases a property that has an HOA, it is mandatory to join as ownership of the property. A person must join and pay dues for the 'upkeep' of common areas, and possibly other items (like pool, trash, etc). In LV, most are just for the common area upkeep and any signage. AND, these are a racket. if you don't pay dues, and other fines, they can levy liens on your home. In 2009 an HOA in KY forced a woman out of her home (who had owned it outright since 2007) the fees were menial like $48/year and she said she did not want to join. The total owed at the time was 288$ and they took her to court. The HOA owns her house, but did not evict her. Just ridiculous.
That doesnt look like a poor area.
+irishelk Well, the idea is to do this all over, so why would you stop at a certain area?
Scram blade Exactly.
Learn to use a camera...
It is Great,
But, From your latest video, All you are doing, is TALKING, Do you Plant {Sow} Anymore,?
