Inspiring woman grows huge amount of free organic food in a tiny backyard
I can grow my own cherries and invite bees.
"The Plummery" is a suburban home where a tiny urban permaculture garden measuring only 1,076 square feet (100 sq/m) produces over 900 pounds (400 kg) of food year-round.

Kat Lavers describes her approach to home gardening, including vertical and bio-intensive growing. She shows how possible it is for city dwellers to be food resilient in the face of natural, financial, and social crises.

It's inspiring how little day-to-day effort goes into creating an abundance of organic food.
