Critics Review
“From beekeeping to vegetable harvesting to subterranean mushroom farms. Gardening got cool. (…) In the end, the medley of crises the planet faces–biodiversity, climate, health–may not be remedied entirely by a gardened awakening… but they might be given a bit more breathing room.” FLAUNT MAGAZINE– “Flaunt Magazine - The Garden issue (USA), July 2021”
