gardening, the environment, green living and a lot of humor

In 2004, Kathy Cummings received a first place award from the City of Chicago for having the Most Naturalized City Garden, which means that she was growing native Midwest plants. In 2012, she was fined for violating a municipal weed ordinance. She returns to the show for the second consecutive week to talk about the process of fighting the fine. Suzanne Malec-McKenna, former Commissioner of the Chicago Department of the Environment (which was eliminated by Mayor Rahm Emanuel), joins the conversation.
