John from www.growingyourgreens.com goes on a field trip to the 2011 Chicago Flower and Garden show to find out if they are showing examples of urban gardening to show people what is possible in their front yard or backyard to grow their own food. John feels strongly that each person should grow a portion of the food they need to eat. Places like garden shows should show people what is truly possible in a small space. In addition, you will learn a few ways to grow vertically and John will visit a few vendor booths that offer products that allow you to grow more food at home.
John from www.growingyourgreens.com goes on another field trip to Centrose Nursery in Gardena California to check out two of his favorite perennial plants. After watching this video, you will learn how just 3 leaves off a special plant is said to have “lowered cholesterol in hundreds of people” . In addition, you will learn about two varieties of the tree collard plant that will provide you with leaves to eat year round, depending on your climate.
