In this episode we chat with Hannah Wooten, a UF IFAS extension agent from Orange County, Florida, about how urban development and sustainable agriculture intersect in local food systems. Hannah's journey from Valencia Community College to her work in horticulture and ethnobotany shows us the deep connection between plants and people.
We learn about innovative farmers who are blending self-sustaining ecosystems with urban waste management. Collaboration between urban planners, chefs, restaurateurs, and entrepreneurs is key to supporting local farmers.
Challenges like zoning and land use planning are discussed, highlighting the need to update codes to strengthen local food connections in Central Florida. Hannah and other extension agents provide essential tools and info to local food leaders, driving community growth.
We also talk about collaborative efforts to help farmers and food entrepreneurs, emphasizing the importance of education, self-determination, and community support. Tune in to find out how to tap into resources from UF IFAS and connect with local extension agents to promote sustainable agriculture in your area.
