Urban Gardener
For some time now, I’ve had the dream of growing my own food. Once you start down the natural/healthy path, having your own organic garden is something like the penultimate experience. For Christmas my mom gave me a bag of dirt and two planters. Most people might think they did something wrong if their mother got them dirt for Christmas, but not me… I knew that my mom know just what I wanted! I was going to build a container garden.
In addition to the pots and dirt, Mom let me take 3 baby collard green plants. When I got back to Atlanta, I tucked them into their planter and got some basil, cilantro, and oregano plants for the other one. I’m now an urban gardener with a small but well loved collection of vegetables and herbs. I’m already making plans to get more planters and more plants! (This might get out of hand)
Dude this is sweet! I want to grow my own veggies, but it never crossed my mind that I could do it in the city with planters. Good thing I know people like you to point out the obvious (or not so obvious) for me…haha.
