Friton leads gardening seminars in D.C. and around the world through his organization, Can YA Love. The group teaches people how to grow gardens in small spaces, which become a source of income in places like the Kawangware slum in Nairobi, Kenya. Friton is also working on a vertical garden at Wangari Gardens in Northwest D.C. that will be accessible to seniors and people with disabilities.
