WELCOME TO WHERE THE FOOD COMES FROM!

We keep telling you farming happens everywhere – in the country, of course, but also in cities and suburbs, on rooftops, in parking lots... and, amazingly, in the backyards of luxurious homes like the one owned by Atlanta's O'Day family – TV news veteran Elizabeth Prann (NewsNation, Fox, CNN) and Darren O'Day, who pitched 15 years in the Major Leagues and is now part of the Atlanta Braves broadcast crew. Though neither come from farming backgrounds, over the last few years they've really caught on.

When Darren was still pitching, Elizabeth started some small gardening projects with their three kids. They weren't especially successful – a few inch-long carrots was about the best of it. But when Darren retired after the end of the 2022 baseball season, things got serious. Now their perfectly manicured Atlanta backyard is home to a flock of well-loved chickens and a wide variety of crops! They don't just talk the talk either – they've put in the time to learn what makes it work. And they put in the time to keep making it work.
