Tara Kolla is an urban farmer, growing organic flowers in Silverlake. She had to stop selling at Farmers Markets because of a 1946 Truck Farming ordinance that prohibits the selling of anything grown on your property except vegetables.
City Council President Eric Garcetti has introduced a motion reversing this ordinance. Read about the motion, dubbed the Food and Flowers Freedom Act. Tara and other fellow urban farmers have started the group Urban Farming Advocates.
