I had no idea such a great service existed. One valuable thing it will likely do is point people who have aspirations to have organic gardens in the right direction. I believe many people are just too busy or intimidated to get started. However, once the experts have installed their garden, they will be inspired to maintain it year after year.

Great idea, glad I took the time to wait for it to load. Shame this can’t really happen in the UK, as modern houses don’t have such luxuries as a Garden.

I would like to start a backyard vegetable garden in my house @San Jose Avenue corner Kingston. Can you help me get started ?

Thanks.

Of course this same point is generally put forward by the Deniers as a pretext for dismissing the scientific consensus. ,

My wife and I finally purchased a property big enough to move our little garden out of containers and into the ground. It was hard work but well worth it for the experience.

Next year it would be nice to take our second property, the one right next door to the property we live on, and turn it into a garden. We could grow enough to supply ourselves with produce for the entire year. Now that would be cool.

While I applaud the industrious creators of this enterprise, and the Organic techniques which they employ, sadly it seems to me another symptom of how we avoid taking the responsibility of something as basic as growing our food and turn it over to others.
Organic processes are the best way to ensure the most nutritious, toxin free (or at least relatively so) produce and are reasonably simple to maintain.
One of the downsides would be the amount of energy consumed and pollutants produced in simply transporting workers and equipment from place to place, instead of the owners/residents walking out their doors to enjoy some “downtime” and exercise in their own yards.
Again I do applaud the Organic component involved and hope for only the best in this enterprise, and for those who use this service, I do applaud the effort to bring only the purest food to your family’s table.

If every American converted his 18th century “British fetish” lawn into a potato crop each year, and in the fall, made Vodka with them, we would have enough fuel for our SUV’s and enough left over to get so drunk we wouldn’t care about fuel shortages any way! This is the ultimate oil crisis solution, a win-win to be sure , and more fun than anything else! See net for making Vodka, hide from the “revenuers” they won’t like this, petition governments for a “break” for domestic “fuel” producers from this archaic law, and get plastered! I like it!

Another strategy for eating and growing your own is to form a yard share group with friends, family or neighbors. Hyperlocavore.com is a free yard sharing community here to help you start and maintain a yard sharing group.

We also support suburban farmers like the good folks at MyFarm – So if you are a fledgling urban/suburban farmer – sign up! It’s free, and perhaps we can help you develop a steady client base and series of yards.

Happy digging!

I LOVE this idea. I wish we had something like this in my town.
