It is a need and a matter close to my heart to “encourage” people to let their balconies, windowsills and terraces green and blossom and make them edible. The aspect of self-sufficiency in addition to promoting biodiversity is very important to me. I prefer to make my offers affordable so that many people can get started. Because I really want everyone to be able to afford to green their balcony and eat healthy food from it. It’s so easy, I’ll help you get started.
