Will Allen is no ordinary farmer. Once a towering professional basketball player, Will can easily hold a whole cabbage in one hand. But his true superpower is seeing potential where others see nothing at all. When Will looked at an empty, abandoned city lot in Milwaukee, he did not see trash or weeds. Instead, he envisioned a massive, welcoming table big enough to feed the entire world. This inspiring true story follows Farmer Will as he tackles poor soil and tight spaces using genius ideas like worm composting and aquaponics. You will discover how his bold vision sparked a grassroots urban farming revolution, turning empty spaces into thriving green gardens. Packed with hope, determination, and fresh vegetables, this vibrant biography shows exactly how one person can grow the power to feed a community.
