From "Plant Killer" to Food Producer
Hi, I'm Sarah Chen. Three years ago, I was managing the produce section of a major grocery chain. I knew exactly how much markup you're paying (it's shocking), how long those "fresh" vegetables have been sitting in warehouses, and why organic prices are so insane.
But here's the embarrassing truth: I couldn't keep a houseplant alive to save my life.
What Changed Everything...
When my grocery bills hit $800/month for organic produce alone, I knew something had to change. That's when I discovered the "space-maximizing" techniques used by commercial greenhouse operations - and adapted them for tiny spaces.
The result? I now grow organic food in my 84-square-foot apartment balcony, spending just 5 minutes a day maintaining it. My grocery bills dropped significantly, and I've never eaten healthier in my life.
