I hope that you've enjoyed hanging out with me at work. Make sure to watch my mission at the end. I am going to be doing everything in my power to help people in cities reconnect to nature to help improve mental health and biodiversity ❤️ Here's the final film recorded by their team: instagram.com/reel/C0g6LcQKkXF/?igshid=ODhhZWM5NmIwOQ==
@@CloudGardenerUK 😂 DON'T TEMPT ME!! 😆 (Also, so cool you'll be on this side! Will you be doing garden-y things? I'm partial to the doings of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, cuz it's my home borough, but the NY Botanical Garden in BX has an amazing orchid show every year, depending on when you make your trip)
Not 3 years! Bahaha.. to be honest.. the containers, soil, furnishings were really expensive. If I was coming to do your garden.. we'd skip them and invest in what you need first.. like soil, seeds, storage etc and upcycle containers to keep the costs down. How's your garden been doing?
@@CloudGardenerUK Who you tellin! My biggest expense this year (aka dang near my entire budget) was for 5 yards of soil to fill my new-ish raised beds. Cost me a grip! Being a guerilla gardener (upcycling, scavenging, penny pinching, etc) is what saves me every year, despite the trials & tribulations. 💚
@@CloudGardenerUK We had a weird season here. Very much affected by the Canadian wildfire smoke. Summer was much cooler and rainier than ordinary and tomatoes I sowed in March didn't start producing until (late) September, for example. I'm grateful for what I was able to accomplish: it was my best year for biodiversity (total new species observed) and that's a win bc my urban plot was BARREN, you hear me??, when I started. Challenging year overall and will be another lean winter. But I'm trying to grow some food indoors this winter (on a shelving unit 😬) so we'll see! Hope springs eternal 😌😅
Also I wonder what your opinion is on private allotments? I’ve just joined up to roots allotments to try a little plot and see if I can grow some stuff, obviously it’s not a council allotment as the waiting lists are so long but you pay a fee each month, it’s definitely more costly however I guess it is a chance to get out into nature and start growing, I just wonder your thoughts and opinions on it x
Jason I love your humor! You have done a splendid job flipping that 750 pound budget into something magical. Bravo. Congratulations on being selected as local nature champions! #bonnetflip 😁😁

Love seeing how well you’re doing with your gardening Jason, you definitely brought Christmas spirit into that garden. Xx
Let me know if you want to learn more about the sheep wool peat free compost as I went to the farm to see it being made 🥰
I wish I could get it in NY!
I'm visiting next year! Let me see if I can bring some in my luggage! 🙈😂😂

Yes that would be great
Amazing, loving the progress and laughter!!! And yes please, would like more info about the compost you've mentioned, thanks
Would love to see the sheep wool compost. 🪴Happy Planting🌿
Wow! Another vote! What are you using at the moment?
That budget is the total garden budget I've had for the last 3 years (combined!). 😂 😭
