9. NYC's Cool New Backyard Farms: Growing More Than J…
3 months ago
Urban NYC farmers have set their eyes on a new prize: transforming privately owned backyards into lush, fruitful farmlands.

By signing up to share your yard with a urban farmer, you can eat fresh from your own personal farm during the harvest months, and even sell produce to your neighbors - growing a community built around fresh local food. The best part is, you don't even have to lift a finger, BK Farmyards does all the farming for you...

    This video reminds me of the wonderful experience we had this past summer in our backyard. This was the first summer in a long, long time that we planted vegetables. We had a wonderful variety similar but not exactly what was shown in the video. Next year we will try some new stuff. Already, I've planted a wide variety of garlic that will be wonderful next summer. Keep up the good work and get colleges and universities to put vegetable gardens on their property.
