Lawns to Urban Gardens
Hey everyone,
Check out this article on Urban gardens in Paris! There is a link to a great TED talk video about the historical connection between yards and farming!
Thanks for this, Caroline. I think that vanEngelsdorp is really onto something when he attributes many of the problems we're seeing with our pollinators to our own disconnection from nature. I want to think about this some more and address it in another post.
This article also reminds me of the fruit trees I saw in the public parks in Prague when I visited a couple of summers ago. They were everywhere.
