If a child has a garden, helps mom pick and prepare, there’s a much better chance they will enjoy veggies, that’s harder in the city

I plant veggies around my yard edges and in buckets, I can’t explain how exciting it is when a little city kids runs up to tell me, “there’s tomatoes 🍅 on your weeds “
