Slow Down and Grow Something: The Urban Grower's Recipe for the Good Life

by Byron Smith Author and Tess Robinson Author

Cities are great because you can walk to the grocery store, see live theatre, and use public transportation. But it's nice for humans to have some plants and greenery around. Slow Down and Grow Something brings some nature into the city. Whether you have access to a backyard, a rooftop, a courtyard, a balcony, or a windowsill, you have room to grow something, be it herbs, fruit, flowers, or veggies. Mojitos are all the sweeter when you have grown your own mint, just as making strawberry jam with your own berries is the best way to do it.
