Burn It All Down

On July 20, 2020, Shireen interviewed former WNBA player and coach Bridget Pettis, who now dedicates her time to her non-profit, Project Roots AZ. They talk about the WNBA, former players coaching and owning teams, the importance of gardening, how to get started if you want to garden (and/or you have a black thumb like Shireen), and the importance of failing. Project Roots is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization based in Phoenix, AZ. They focus on ways to educate the community about growing their own food through various educational programs. They support the homeless by feeding them from their local community gardens and mobile kitchen service, supplying hygiene items, clothing and shelter. Project Roots AZ offers seasonal produce bag delivery services in certain parts of the Phoenix area and can be found at the Farmers Market at Spaces of Opportunity.
