About this listen
In this episode, we sit down with Tanisha Velez, a trailblazer in food accessibility and sustainable agriculture in Cleveland. As the owner of Cleveland Fresh and Urban Agriculture Operation, Tanisha is transforming local farming with innovative indoor growing practices like microgreens. She’s also the co-director of Jardin 4 Life Inc., a nonprofit dedicated to empowering communities through food access, education, and entrepreneurship.
From leading La Marketa, a thriving community market, to educating youth through “Garden Like It’s 1890”, and organizing the Roberto Clemente League for young athletes, Tanisha is deeply committed to creating lasting change. In this inspiring conversation, she shares her journey, the challenges of fighting food deserts, and how she’s building a more sustainable and connected Cleveland.
