Marjory Wildcraft - How to Grow Food When you Have No Yard/Guerrilla Gardening in Puerto Rico

Hey everyone this is Marjory wildcraft from The Grow Network.

I told you guys in my last video how I had to guerrilla garden because my AirBnb has no garden space or enough sunlight for growing food. I found this cool little pathway in the neighborhood that took me to the perfect  guerrilla gardening patch… 

Okay but first, let me be more careful [for the tenderfoots out there]. I am wearing shoes for you guys! Ha I feel like a motorcycle cop in these boots. 

I noticed that there are wild legume plants right where I started taping this video. Once you’ve seen them, they’re super easy to identify with the classic pea flower. By the way, the legume family is all edible. Only some species will cause a little tummy ache but you’re not gonna hurt yourself by eating wild peas. 

At the plot, the first thing I did was clear out the grass from a 6 ft x 8 ft area. The ground has been fairly compacted so I broke it up with a pick axe for a week. It’s way softer than when I started. The way I handle it is by starting early in the morning for 10-15 minutes. I wish my young, strong son was here to help and surf of course!
