The Farm and the City and the Radio (FCR) is an interactive sound work about what feeds and connects us. Over the summer and fall of 2020 Big Pond Small Fish worked with farmers, artists, a community radio station and an art gallery to create eight short sound works, three "Farm Tour" videos, and two ASL accessible videos.

The Farm and the City and the Radio is created by Big Pond Small Fish and Krys Verrall in collaboration with Artscape Gibraltar Point, Black Creek Community Farm, the Edible Campus, UTSC, RadioFWD, Doris McCarthy Gallery, and artists Aliyah Mvita, Andrew Zukerman, Gaitrie Persaud, Heather Rappard, Jon Inaki Etxeberria, and Kachely Peters.
