Watch our story - Hanging out with 18 really cool people, some of the hardest workers I've seen in a long time! My friends called and said they needed some seedlings to replant the greens house, no prob, I'll be right over with 350 (lettuce, basil, dill, shiso, Kohlrabi and cilantro). Also had a great tour of the garden! 🌱♥️🥬
