Do you want to test out your green thumb but think you don”t have space for a garden?
You”re not alone.
Most of the world”s population is concentrated in urban areas…which aren”t exactly ideal for the traditional garden. Even if you find yourself with little more than a small patch of lawn, or maybe even only a fire escape, you can still start your very own garden.
How? Vertical gardening!
