So glad you are teaching others to grow their own do they can eat healthy. I have a back yard so can only grow so much but have 15 fruiting trees because I buy dwarf and grow them against my fence sideways like in England.
Today, I volunteered at Eat Your Yard through my employer and was delighted by the experience. I found the work highly engaging and appreciated the chance to contribute. Tim provided exceptional hospitality, sharing his expertise with my group. Prior to starting our tasks, we received a thorough tour, which was greatly appreciated. I plan to revisit, both to volunteer and to purchase plants. For those who have not visited, I highly recommend doing so. It is essential to support local businesses.
