“What that kind of attitude and approach is saying over and over again is that gardening is not for you; you don’t belong here.”

I met up with Teresa Cheng a few weeks ago for lunch at my favourite long-time local eatery, Cafe Bernate for an in-person interview to talk about urban gardening, growing food, and sustainability. We popped back to my place after the interview to take some quick snaps and of course I sent her off with some extra tomato and anise-hyssop seedlings I had kicking around. I have a tendency to unload plants or herbs onto visitors. I may be a terrible sales person but I know how to “sell” a plant.

The result of that conversation can be found on the Taste T.O site, Talking the Green Revolution with Gayla Trail.
