This afternoon, I was out in front of the house working on transplanting seedlings. Two young men who work for a roofing company approached to ask about inspecting my roof for damage from recent hailstorms.

I talked to them about that for a few minutes, then they asked about the plants I was working with. We ended up talking about the garbage produced by America's industrial food system, and both of them said they were interested in growing some of their own food, but didn't know how to start. Long story short, I gave them each a surplus pepper plant with instructions on how to transplant them into a larger pot and care for them, and some fresh vegetables from my garden. They left stoked with enthusiasm for learning a new skill that could put them on a path to greater self sufficiency and better health.

Good luck, Austin and Cody! I hope you have success with those peppers and it inspires you to go on to a lifelong joy of gardening.
