Unfortunately I am dependant on the local markets for all food items. But this may change in the spring.. I am moving to a great area and the apartment has a garden area. Have never planted one before but am looking into doing so. My first apartment on the ground floor! It’s attached to a modern building but sits on it’s own...so no neighbors to bother. Stone drive to the front door too. Nice patio etc. So this is something to look forward to in the spring.
sounds like an improvement. My wife, kids and I lived in a townhouse apartment (in NM) for many years with a very small backyard on the South side of the building. I put up a greenhouse in there in the Winter and really enjoyed what I grew. (2x2 wood frame with polyfilm covering) It worked great.
My family farms here where I grew up. Some of the land has been owned/operated by our family for 110+ years. It has changed, but we are capable of being totally self-sufficient if it should ever be necessary. Pray that it is not.
