Do you have a backyard where you live? I'm desperate to start a garden, but we don't even have the space to have a vertical garden.

Maybe because we're in LA and it's trendy to shop at farmers markets, or because we have to drive 30 miles one way to get to the good weekend markets since we work all week, but it was costing us twice as much to shop at farmers markets as it does to shop at Trader Joe's.
