Kitchen Gardeners International: KGI celebrates NYC Grows 2007

Did you know that there are kitchen gardeners living in high-rise buildings growing food on their rooftops, balconies, and windowsills? We do because we had a chance to meet a few of them last month at the NYC Grows festival organized by the National Gardening Association (NGA).

It's really inspiring to hear their stories and encouraging too. As of next year, the United Nations estimates that there'll be more people living in cities than in rural areas. We're going to need creative ideas for feeding all these veggie-hungry city folks and urban gardens will be part of the solution. Thanks to our friends at the NGA for allowing us to join this great annual event.
