You get that lush feel and relaxing atmosphere. I am also a big fan of vertical gardening. I think you have less insects when the plants are off and away form the soil. Denise Hi Sharon,

I think a garden adds to an apartment, balcony or small backyard. You get that lush feel and relaxing atmosphere.

I am also a big fan of vertical gardening. I think you have less insects when the plants are off and away form the soil. Denise

You can grow almost anything in the city that you can grow in the country, except maybe large livestock. I've been growing fruits and vegetables in an urban garden for many years and I know many other people who do the same. Urban gardeners find creative ways to use vertical space, like tomatoes or beans climbing up the side of the house or garage. Use the front yard too. If that's where all the sun is, grow vegetables there. Mix in a few flowers too. Put a container of herbs right outside your backdoor. It's convenient when you're cooking and that frees up space in the ground for more demanding crops. Sharon from Moxie Gardner It’s true.
