Unlike the book, several investors recently were invited to meet with "Grow Youngstown." After meeting with their NINE member board, the investors drove out to Fairgreen expecting to see this production farm in the City, sadly they were laughing at the size of the garden, saying "a nine member board for a little bitty garden. Folks, I happen to like the fairgreen project, but listening to these investors, jerked me back to what I have always cried about, is fairgreen for show or is it going to feed the entitled population?
I almost forgot, it pisses me off to learn that the YNDC paid landscapers to build their garden in the Idora neighborhood! This is another PORK nonprofit we do not need.
