Low-income residents of Los Angeles’s Skid Row can now thank a group of dedicated Cal Poly students for an endless supply of garden-fresh vegetables available literally right outside their doors in the form of an “edible wall.”

The seventh annual UC/CSU/CCC Sustainability Conference will be held at Cal Poly this weekend, the first time the conference will be hosted by a California State University.
