and turn it into a garden.

NWA: (SINGING) Express yourself.

I'm expressing with my full capabilities.

There is no end to the bounty of mother nature.

There's enough for everybody, and that's the one thing

that you will learn from gardening.

Most importantly, what I'm going to teach

you is how to grow your own food.

(SINGING) Legendary.

Whoa.

In this class what you going to learn

is how to take some of my favorite vegetables and herbs

from planting to harvesting, mint, lettuce, sage,

sweet potatoes, rosemary, kale.

I know a lot of people out there,

you don't like leafy greens.

I don't either.

Put them in your diet, anyway, because this

is one of the healthiest things that you can possibly eat.

You're going to learn how to make

the most of any patch of soil, from sidewalks to roof tops

to flower pots.

And I know you're asking, what the hell is compost?

Compost is one of the sexiest things on the planet.

This takes things out of the waste cycle.

They don't wind up in the landfill.

(SINGING) Things ain't never going to be the same.

These things are really important,

not only to your garden, but to the planet.

(SINGING) Are you ready?

Are you ready?

I call myself the gangster gardener,

'cause to me having knowledge is gangster.

Soil is gangster.

Air is gangster as [BLEEP].

(SINGING) Make way for me.

Gardens to me represent freedom.

That's one of the reasons that I started growing food myself.

And I had no idea what happened in my community,

then around the world, would happen just

from me planting a strip in South Central Los Angeles.

(SINGING) Legendary.

Are you ready?

We are supposed to inspire each other to wake up an--

and realize what's truly important.

I want to bring your creativity into your space.

I want you to know that you have the power to do this.

(SINGING) Legendary.

I'm Ron Finley, and this is my MasterClass.

(SINGING) Wait and see.

Wait and see.

They going to talk about me.

Just wait and see.
