Eleven times this year, I’ve said welcome to a new month which means that roughly 40 times, I have welcomed you to the end of the week and the beginning of the weekend here at Costa’s Corner. And here we are again, heading into our first weekend of November, which means we are in Urban Agriculture Month and there are activities taking place all around the country celebrating the growing of food in our towns and cities.

Tammy dives into aquatic plants, Costa tours a potted paradise, Jane visits a legacy garden, Sophie meets a creative couple, Millie features underrated evergreens, Hannah builds a reo mesh arch and Jerry shows how to fight a range of pests with a common household staple.
