PHILADELPHIA -- At The Sustainable Farm by Custom Cuisine, Chef Christina McCoy is cultivating an indoor vertical farm right inside the historic Reading Terminal Market with all kinds of herbs, greens and various vegetables growing up the walls of her tiny shop.
She's also created a farm-to-skincare line, using the herbs grown right in the store.
And she uses her space to boost other local businesses, particularly women of color.
She carries the candles, incense, body butter and oils of eight other Black women makers.
You can buy her organically grown herbs and veggies to eat but her real goal is to show you how to grow your own.
McCoy carries traditional herb gardens with non-GMO seeds and mini hydroponic kits that come with an integrated app that will give you prompts on caring for your plants.
