🌱 It’s Gardening Season! 🌱
I’m thinking about offering a new service this year to continuing growing our family farm business Leo’s Urban Farms … installing in-ground edible vegetable/fruit gardens for anyone who wants to grow their own food but doesn’t know where to start. 💚

Here’s what I’d handle for you:

✨ Come out and measure your backyard
✨ Give you an estimate based on size & layout
✨ Check what your soil is capable of growing
✨ Build & plant your edible garden (greens, herbs, veggies, etc.)
✨ Guide you on how to take care of it afterward

If you’ve been wanting a garden but need the extra help, comment GARDEN or message me and I’ll reach out. 🌞🍅🥬

Let’s grow something this season! 🌿👩🏽‍🌾

Nerdie tech talk 💬🤓Once I have my bee hives I’m planning to invest in a pair of meta glasses to begin vlogging(YouTube) to give y’all my personal POV while I work, because who doesn’t want to see bees up close and personal? 🐝 👓

Does anyone have any suggestions sharing which pair of meta glasses to choose? Leave your honest reviews, opinions, tips & your experience with them for enhancing vlogging while hands free.

Most people run from bees…
I just decided to start raising them 🐝😅

I officially joined the Kentucky State Beekeepers Association and I’m adding beekeeping to Leo’s Urban Farms.
Excited to learn, slightly anxious about thousands of bees, but I’m ready for the new adventure. 🍯🌻🌸

I’ve always loved the idea of producing my own honey and helping pollinators thrive in the garden.

My goal:
🌻 Support pollinators
🍯 Learn to harvest backyard honey
🌱 Help the garden thrive

If you’re a local beekeeper in Louisville Kentucky, I would LOVE a mentor! Drop advice below or please message me!

Three years of gardening and finally spotted my first hornworm. I guess my garden’s officially leveled up! It’s so cute but ugly at the same time. 😂🐛🌿
