3. Mason from Winter Park Urban Farm
Winter Park Urban Farm is a tiny, backyard market garden in Orlando, FL. We grow vegetables and microgreens that are offered through a CSA and farmer's markets. At our farm, we use regenerative farming practices that are sustainable and better for the environment. We focus on soil health and never use any synthetic fertilizers or pesticides.

4. Caitlin Fogarty from Regenerative Designs
Regenerative Designs is a local permaculture-inspired landscape business. We build edible landscapes that go beyond just producing food(though we are very passionate about increasing our town’s food sovereignty!). Through thoughtful ecological design, our landscapes can create biodiverse habitats for native insects, regenerate the local water cycle, mitigate flooding, drought, and city heat island issues as well as increase the joy and happiness we gain from spending time in our home landscape. Our team is a diverse set of native plant aficionados, plant geeks, and design specialists.

Caitlin, founder and lead designer, has a long history of working in organic agriculture, the nursery trade, and organizing with Orlando Permaculture.
