I know I'm not the only one who's passed the artsy Obama sign, constructed with mismatched sign letters and mounted on a wall of wooden pallets, at 3314 Troost and wished I could get inside to take a closer look. From the street, the lot beside the black-and-teal artist studio looks like some kind of secret garden.
It lived up to my curiosity.
I was just one of scores of interested residents who paraded through Hoop Dog Garden yesterday as part of the Urban Farms Tour. Hosted by the Kansas City Center for Urban Agriculture, the event expanded to more than 30 farms and gardens this year.
