Ever wonder about the story behind your favorite local nursery? 🌱 November 20th marks our anniversary - City Farmers opened in 1972! That's over 50 years of dirt under our nails. We still have the first $1.10 my dad made, hanging in the original packaging. Looking through old photos and handwritten flyers (rose bushes for $5.50!), what strikes me most is the people - crews who built this place, employees who taught me to prune and drive tractors, families who've been coming for decades.

Tony's got 14 chickens and 2 ducks, and each carries a powerful name. We're talking Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Sonia Sotomayor, Tina Turner, and Marsha P Johnson. He got into chickens partly for pest control. They take care of fleas, and all sorts of bugs. The ducks? Well, they tried to coexist with the chickens, but that didn't go as planned. Turns out ducks can be a little too bold. Tony's biggest lesson from building out his setup: don't go 110% your first time. His first coop was fancy and expen

These side yards? Most people ignore them. Here's what this family did instead. Arezou and Ted turned every forgotten corner into something productive: rain barrels catching water in the "dead zones," dragon fruit climbing up, blueberries and blackberries tucked in where most folks would just see empty space. And the strawberry pot? That's become a daily ritual with their daughter, picking berries together each morning. Their philosophy on garden critters taking a nibble here and there? "They ta
