Nov 2011 me and my partner moved back from Berlin, Germany, to an apartment sandwiched between Crown Heights, Prospect Heights, and Bed-Stuy. We started a container garden (because there was no dirt) and a parking lot drain which flooded from the funeral home next door. We had our work cutout for us. This was a must after living in an amazing environment like Berlin. The people there enjoy every last bit of the outdoors when the weather permits, because their winters are so harsh and dreary. I had a basil plant going for a while in Germany. Fungus gnats killed it and the lack of sun, or so I thought.
I'd always thought of myself as pretty unsuccessful aka... the black widow of plants. Everything seemed to die.
One of the most important things I learned since the death of my Basil, was is that I was killing my plants with LOVE.
Almost two years later I have gotten into permaculture, homesteading, and all things in between. All my friends ask me for herbal healing advice, health tips, and food ideas. They told me I need to start video blogging. I refuse...so instead I will write-blog.
You too can grow anything anywhere and take back your power of your health and in your home with what you eat and what you grow.
