A hidden urban farm becomes a pandemic safe haven in A PLACE TO GROW.
Sierra is all sunshine on the outside. During the pandemic she joins the farm and meets Cecilia, an older woman who is just as engaged in gardening as Sierra. Their friendship allows Sierra to open up about her anxiety that hides under her bubbly surface.
As the plants and their friendship grow, the farm acts as a medium for growth in more ways than one.
