People really like this and my listeners download the episodes about food…

I had all these happy customers and they were growning so much food, like definitely growing arugula and asparagus and didn’t know what to do with it. 

I teamed up with a local chef in Charlotte her name is Megan Lambert she

• having a garden,
• knowing what to grow
