When I moved to New York City from North Texas, I expected a lot of things, none of which was having a vegetable garden. But I have one. And stuff is actually growing. Quite well. It's been a labor of love and respite from the hustle of NYC life. During an event I was photographing at a five star restaurant in Manhattan, I was having smalltalk with someone. They asked where I lived in the city and I said the Bronx. The person replied, "You know...I have never met anyone who lives in the Bronx." I didn't know exactly how to respond but felt no disrespect. Often while tending the garden, I've thought about that conversation and think to myself, I'm glad I live where I do because I have this, a Bronx backyard garden.
