After the success of last year’s event, this year’s Huncho Farms was inspired by local farmers markets with tents carrying fresh produce, meat, bread, pastries, and more. Quavo made a special appearance alongside Councilwoman Andrea Boone from the City of Atlanta, HOPE Hustlers, a leading criminal violence intervention (CVI) organization based in Atlanta that is part of The Rocket Foundation’s SPARK grants program collective.
