Pixie’s view of my Chili attempt to save the world!
I’ve just seen a part of “Silence, ça pousse” on the television where they interviewed a lady who grew an enormous amount of vegetables on her small balcony in France. She also shared her “knew how” of gardening with children to interest them in gardening. I think perhaps growing something you can eat is more interesting for children. Amelia

I am fascinated by how we can use the vertical world to grow food and flowers as there seems to be a shortage of horizontal space in so many places. I shall look out for the programme!
