( Phoenix, AZ ) In the West Valley tract homes and big box stores are pushing agriculture out. Sycamore Farms in Waddell has been owned by the Moore family since the 1940's. It's managed by Matt Moore... who in addition to being a farmer is an artist. Like many Western artists Matt Moore comments on development and urban sprawl. But unlike most he does it from the inside as a full-time farmer. KJZZ's Abigail Beshkin profiles artist Matt Moore.
