Regional and City Planning assistant professor Dr. Bryce Lowery was recently interviewed on the University of Oklahoma’s podcast, Just Sow. In the episode, called “The Future of Food,” Dr. Lowery and host Emily Tackett discuss a range of topics related to food insecurity. The Just Sow website summarizes their conversation: “Making healthy food options accessible to everyone despite their economic status is an issue in Oklahoma and around the world. What do we do when supermarkets don’t settle down in communities that need them most? The future of food intersects with architecture and urban planning with solutions that range from community gardens to towering skyscraper farms in the middle of downtown.”
