We have been renting here in Kansas from a slum lord for almost 20 years and now that he down (what goes around comes around), a young soldier bought this old house for a dime on the dollar, we have a good landlord and a backyard to grow in. I have been watching you and learning. I'm an 'old dog' (78) and I'm learning 'new tricks'. Grannie showed me years ago and now it's all paying off in my backyard!

Three years later being under a lot of stress and gaining a little weight I went to the doctor and she would not let me leave her office because she said my blood pressure was to high she had me take a pill and I left and went home the next day I walked to the store for lemon I divorced my problem and walked for 30min aday.

We eat our own plums, peaches, cherries, strawberries, oranges, figs, olives, pomegranates, lemons, grapes, blackberries, nectarines, cactus fruit, apples and persimmons. I love our fruit. The fruit from the store doesn’t have a taste. Our berries are so sweet. We have chickens too. There’s no reason for us to take charge of our own health and lives! Doing it right!

I do not have a green thumb but I am going to pull this off.
