The best gardening & homesteading channels on Youtube
Description:
For the last 15 years, I have been growing food in my family’s vegetable garden following organic and sustainable principles. I am now on a mission to help as many people as possible to grow their own food inexpensively. It is such a fun and rewarding process which I hope everyone can experience. Growing food involves so many fun activities which can be as easy as you want. There is nothing better than harvesting some of your own homegrown produce. #AvantLink #930609
