Carrots and onions do well together. Those are the basics and there are more rules. Sounds complicated, but the rules shape the architecture of the gardens.

AYKA SolarPublished 3 years ago in EarthMy Country is my Passion
My passion is my country and I find that I am always talking about her – even when I don’t mean to. I grew up in Nigeria but have lived in the UK close to thirteen years. It pains me that to achieve the things I want, I seem to have to live outside of the place that makes me feel most whole. It pains me more that I am not the only Nigerian to feel that way.
