Stay tuned! We’ll be publishing a new episode in this series weekly!
The Grow Network is a global network of people who produce their own food and medicine. We’re the coolest bunch of backyard researchers on Earth! We’re constantly sharing, discovering, and working together to test new paths for sustainable living—while reconnecting with the “old ways” that are slipping away in our modern world. We value soil, water, sunlight, simplicity, sustainability, usefulness, and freedom. We strive to produce, prepare, and preserve our own food and medicine, and we hope you do, too!

Manufacturing Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) is highly toxic to the environment. Please do not use new PVC. Re-using old PVC is fine but creating new PVC is creating severe pollution. Think about the name for a minute. Then please stop buying or promoting this stuff. Use something else.
I really enjoyed your video. It’s so much easier watching and listening to instructions instead of just telling what to do without showing it. I garden organically too. This was my first and last yr. to grow broccoli and cabbage. They were all sheered down to the stem before I even knew I had a problem. I’m sure it was the cabbage moth, which is now many moths. When I saw the first one, I sprayed with insecticidal soap. When that didn’t help, I changed to Bt. That didn’t help either. Can you please tell me what I can do! I have a lot of kale out there. They’re munching on it, but I planted a lot so have hope I will get some to eat if I know how to combat the moths. Thank you.
