"As we chat, two people are milling around the seated area next to the free coffee machine. Suddenly Misty Brown, having overheard the mushroom discussion, couldn't contain herself. "Excuse me," leaning into our table, "did I hear you just say you are going to grow and sell mushrooms here? I can't believe it!"

Misty's enthusiasm was off the charts. "Right now, I must travel all over the city on public transportation to buy my mushrooms every week. It's not fun. I live for mushrooms. It would be a dream come true to be able to buy them here in the neighborhood," says Misty...

Unscheduled and out of the blue, two residents were making clear their need for food not easily available to them right now. Clearly, it would be life changing to have access to mushrooms and other foods. It is exactly the reason JR has dedicated himself to the project. He was overwhelmed by their excitement and interest. "It is really heartwarming to know I am on the right path," he said."
