| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, welcome to In The Mind of Fras. |
| 0:07.0 | I am your host, Sarah Frazier, and this podcast is in every Tuesday podcast all about interviews, experiences, and entrepreneurs. |
| 0:15.0 | Today, I get to cover two bases, entrepreneurs and interviews. |
| 0:19.6 | Thank you very much. I'm talking to two of the founders of up-top |
| 0:24.5 | acres, which is an awesome, awesome business that's all about elevating your eating. And it's |
| 0:30.0 | reimagining what a farm looks like. They're based in Washington, D.C. There are two people |
| 0:34.8 | that I'm going to be interviewing today, Kathleen and Christoff, as I |
| 0:37.9 | mentioned, two of the founders. They're very young, millennials. Christoph has blonde hair. He's tall, |
| 0:43.6 | very thin, wears a baseball cap, and a plaid shirt. He looks like a very modern hipster farmer. |

| 1:14.4 | actually grow their own food and then it would be distributed to the residents that live there. |
| 1:19.7 | I love this concept. |
| 1:20.9 | And they're working with all kinds of builders, new and old, to try and bring this uptop |
| 1:26.6 | acres, a garden on your rooftop to every living space |
| 1:31.0 | in D.C. and eventually beyond. I think you're going to enjoy today's interview, and it truly is |
| 1:36.1 | an inspirational story of people with a dream, making it happen. So take a listen to Kathleen and |
| 1:43.1 | Christop. |
