Why is a Heath Innovator Growing Fresh Veggies Year-Round?

Medical experts know that fresh vegetables play a very beneficial role in health but if you can’t afford them, you’re mostly out of luck.

Fixing this situation is the latest passion of Mark Masselli, co-host of “Conversations on Health Care” and president, CEO, and founder of Moses/Weitzman Health System.

In this special episode, co-host Margaret Flinter asks Mark to explain the new initiative to tap hydroponic farming (growing year-round in water, without soil) for providing fresh food to families in economically challenged neighborhoods.

This is all growing as we celebrate Mark’s milestone birthday (he just
turned 75!).

We’re taking the opportunity to also ask Mark to reflect on:

• The added benefits of community building in a stressful world
• “Conversations on Health Care” guests who inspired him and all of us
• The public policy changes he’s experienced and the critical role research will continue to play in policy creation
