West Oakland, Calif., has been what many classify as a food desert. In eight square miles, with 30,000 residents, there is not one supermarket. But now, West Oakland has an organic food co-op, fresh produce store and a farmer's market. Reporter Christopher Johnson takes us to City Slicker Farms, a group that helps residents grow their own fresh vegetables.
