That space sat unused for six years. I mowed it, ignored it, felt quietly guilty about it. Then a neighbour asked if he could grow vegetables there and I said yes. Now I get fresh tomatoes every week, and honestly it has been one of the loveliest surprises my home has given me.

I started asking around when I was chatting with neighbors who weren't gardening their front yards. I love getting to watch my little satellite gardens flourish nearby!
