The title of this post is a little deceiving. I usually have the third section say the last name of the family that is in the photos, but in this case, it was a whole bunch of last names because it was a family of 26 people. It started with the grandparents, who had five kids. Those five kids married and had 14 children + 1 on the way. All of them but 4 work at a company called Greenstalk Garden, which was originally created by the youngest daughter. They are based out of Knoxville, TN, but the core family is actually from Illinois. The spouses are from all over, but they managed to get 22 people to move to Knoxville to manage Greenstalk Garden together, and I just think it’s the coolest thing ever.
As we waited for everyone to arrive, I was talking to the grandfather of the group. He was sharing their story with me, and my first thought was I think this could be a reality tv show.
If you haven’t heard of Greenstalk Garden yet, you should definitely click the link and see what it’s all about. If you’ve always wanted a garden but don’t have the yard for it, this is your solution. You can grow a vertical garden anywhere you want. It’s truly incredible. Just so you understand totally, when you do buy a Greenstalk Vertical Garden, you are also supporting this lovely family of 26 you see here!
