Fun Facts
Recently I have fallen in love with gardening--inspired by my grandfather who tuned his inner city backyard into a mini-farm decades ago. He is 90 years old now, and has bequeathed his garden to me. I am so proud and excited to follow in his footsteps growing all kinds of vegetables, fruits, herbs, and flowers.
