  • Mark and Kate talk with Alice Waters, founder of the Edible Schoolyard Project, and Spence Medford, senior vice president at The Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation. Together, they analyze why there are reasons to be optimistic about school lunch, and especially about school-supported agriculture.
