I have a yard for my dog. But also have a massive vegetable garden, insect houses, different flowers for attracting different helpers, worm garden, and soon bees will be getting a home for honey.

All this can be done in a backyard and it's honestly way less hassle to set up than dealing with fruit and veg picking in the store.

Assess what's on your plate most, what grows well in your region, which bugs help the most, and grab some seeds! Tastes so much better too, omg.
