DALLAS Four prime acres, which used to sit unused behind Owenwood United Methodist Church in far east Dallas, are now an urban farm. In 2017, Owenwood became unsustainable as a church, but energy and ingenuity are molding it into a faith-based community center.
It is still part of the United Methodist Church, but now called Owenwood Farm and Neighbor Space. Josh Esparza, 28, campus pastor since 2018, said this is the first year the farm will produce crops on a large scale.

DALLAS Faced with the stark reality that, both locally and nationwide, minorities are not receiving the COVID-19 vaccine in numbers proportionate to their populations, city and county leaders are doubling government and community efforts to make sure everyone gets their place in line.
