Welcome to my blog, City Green Thumb, where I share my passion for gardening and sustainable living with New Yorkers. My name is Willie KG, and I’m a Kenyan-born green enthusiast based in Nairobi with a deep love for all things green and growing.
My gardening journey began as a personal quest to reconnect with nature in the bustling city of Nairobi. I quickly realized the therapeutic benefits of nurturing plants and watching them grow, and I became determined to spread this joy to others.
Through years of research and experimentation, i’ve discovered modern and innovative ways of gardening in urban settings. With limited space and resources, city dwellers can still enjoy the beauty and bounty of a garden.
In my blog, I share practical tips on growing herbs, vegetables and fruits in small spaces such as balconies, patios, and rooftops in New York. I also explore the latest trends in sustainable urban gardening, such as hydroponics, vertical gardening, and companion planting.
But City Green Thumb is more than just a gardening blog. It’s a community of like-minded individuals in New York who share a passion for sustainable living. That’s why I value contributions and insights from every green lover in the Big Apple! We can create a healthier and more vibrant city by adopting eco-friendly practices.
So, join me on this journey of discovery, and let’s turn our concrete jungle into a green oasis!
