-LA based Farmer Ken

Sparks, who grows everything from cucamelons to oranges, has become popularly known as The Farmer Ken. Featured in a wide array of publications, notably the LA Times, San Diego Tribune, Modern Farmer, and recently Spectrum News on LA, The Farmer Ken offers his organic, pesticide-free produce grown year-round via a series of levels on his terrace, and fruit trees, with aims of starting a community garden. In his burgeoning “food forest” features over 70 trees, and mimics the ecosystem of an actual forest where trees of varying heights co-mingle with shrubs and vines.
