Go Green Agriculture featured on "A Growing Passion" on KPBS
On this last week’s episode of “A Growing Passion” on KPBS, host Nan Sterman declares “Agriculture is undergoing a major transformation.” That’s why we’re happy to have Go Green Agriculture (Facebook) as a tenant on the Ranch – their innovative growing system is an inspiring vision of the future of agriculture.
“A Growing Passion” featured Go Green Agriculture on their show last week. Watch below to see how they grow water efficient, nutrient rich local organic greens.

The Leichtag Foundation is a proud sponsor of “A Growing Passion” this season.
Stacie and Jeff Cook understand commitment. They live it.
Black, Jewish and Queer. These three identities weave the fabric of who I am, but it took a long time to believe that they could exist together.
Lee and Toni Leichtag established the Leichtag Foundation in 1991 following the sale of their business. Lee and Toni were lifelong entrepreneurs with a passion for innovation and for supporting talent. They believed that only with big risk comes big reward. Both born to families in poverty, Toni to a single mother, they strongly believed in helping those most in need and most vulnerable in our community. While they supported many causes, their strongest support was for young children and the elderly, two demographics who particularly lack voice in our society.
Lifelong Baltimoreans, Rabbi George and Alison Wielechowski and their sons, 11-year-old Lennon and 9-year-old Gideon, are more than pursuing the good life in Southern California. Having moved to San Diego more than three years ago, they are fulfilling a lifelong dream.
You would think that as the executive director of San Diego LGBT Pride, Fernando Zweifach López Jr., who uses the pronoun they, has done all the coming out they possibly can. A queer, non-binary individual who has worked for many years on civil rights issues, López also speaks openly and often about their father’s family, Mexican-American migrant workers who tilled the fields of rural California.
