2017-06-20 06:36:56 PM elishad Does anyone have veggies planters that you can sit in front of and pull weeds? I don't know if this even makes sense.
2017-06-20 06:36:58 PM patfuller cabage is what we have. I just look at the growth of these plants and say to myself these residents know what they're doing. Kathy can the kitchen cook and serve what the residents grow to the other residents?
