Space is no excuse for not composting. The City Gardener here provides a step-by-step pictorial of how to compost in a small bin, under your sink. These little guys are incredible fast at their work and the result is rich in nutrients for your plants. BTW - there’s no odor and very little chance of the worms escaping.
Community Gardening - Community Supported Agriculture
Community Supported Agriculture is a great way for city gardeners to get all the benefits of an abundant vegetable garden. By becoming a share holder in a local farm, you’ll receive your portion of fresh, seasonal vegetables & flowers in exchange for a fee and/or some farm labor. It’s a great way to get your hands dirty. No farm in sight? Participate through a Farmers’ Market.
