"Oh these tomatoes we grew at home are way better than the supermarket ones!" A sentence we hear all too often & something we know is true. Home grown is way better than store bought, but, how easy is it to do? Where do you start? Why bother? What are the benefits? All these questions that Jan & I had & luckily, had the person to ask them too. Fruit & veg grower & horticulturist, Sam Corfield explains all in this episode of Into The Foliage.
From how Sam got into growing his own, to why he thinks its important for people to connect more with where their food comes from. Sam dives into why where our food comes from, is important for us & the planet.
