Kale. You may have heard of it. It’s a leafy green that trendy people areeating in New York City social circles apparently. And putting in smoothies.Yeah, that thing. Some are even calling it “the new beef.”
I even have a few plants growing off of the window guard rail. Sometimes a pigeon flies up and tries to sit in the pots and I yell and scream like a madwoman. “Get off my damn kale!”
