In Episode 359 of The Art Box, MJ and Steve welcome Kirsten Pope to the STEAM Center recording studio for a lively conversation about IKA Greens , the innovative business she runs with her husband, Alex. We dig into what “IKA” really stands for, how their operation is changing the way our community thinks about fresh, locally grown produce, and why sustainable food systems matter now more than ever. Kirsten shares the story behind their business, their vision for the future of farming in the desert, and what it’s like to run a family business with purpose. This episode is packed with inspiration, insight, and maybe even a little encouragement to get your hands dirty, or at least to eat more greens! You can find IKA Greens open every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 9 AM to 1 PM at Baja Imports (410 W Mesquite Blvd, Mesquite, NV 89027). Stop by for fresh, locally grown veggies, and don’t miss their delicious soups and creative salad options. Enjoy them on the spot or take them home, and stay a while to catch up with neighbors. It’s fresh food and good community all in one stop! Did we mention they have fresh doggie treats. Find out more at: https://www.ikagreens.com/
