Urban and rural collide in this memoir of a woman who turned a vacant lot in downtown Oakland into a thriving farm. Drawn to the idea of backyard self-sufficiency, she decided it might be possible to have it both ways: homegrown vegetablesas well as museums, bars, and concerts minutes away. This audiobook tells her story, which is both a cautionary tale and a full-throated call to action. "Narrated with cheerful verve, [her] performance will charm even those [listeners] without the slightest inclination to get up close and personal with their future meals."—Publishers Weekly
