Urban Farm

When my husband and I bought our house 19 years ago, he asked me what we should plant. Anything edible I said. Why mow the lawn when you can cut asparagus. Let's grow crops and fruit trees, I said. He laughed and planted flowers and shade trees and lilac bushes.
My friends down the street agree with my approach and they harvest food off of their tiny plot. They also raise chickens and have bunnies along with cats and dogs.
Now that corn and tomato season is here I am obsessed.
