DC Gardeners Oral History Project - Ryan Sheppard

Subject

History
Urban Agriculture

Description

The Neighborhood Farm Initiative interviewed members of Washington, DC's growing urban agriculture community to document the history of growing food in the city.

Sheppard discusses his early life in suburban Washington, DC, his early days living in the city as an adult in the mid 90s, and his forays in to community gardening beginning in 2005.

Sheppard notes that although he lived in DC during the early stages of the city's gentrification, it was hard to get a full understanding of the scale until it was almost complete.
