Ron Finley is a master gardener and Founder of The Ron Finley Project in South Central Los Angeles which is a gardening training facility. Ron believes all the lessons of life can be learned from gardening and spending time in the garden. On a mission to change the narrative about gardening, Finley encourages everyone to grow their own food, have healthy eating habits and care deeply about the planet. Over the flavors of a hearty soul food meal in South Los Angeles at Alta, Ron shares the detour that became the defining trajectory of his life and how it helped him redefine his purpose and "why".
