how did i end up growing basil for a viral chef’s pasta reels?

One day, I got a DM from a chef whose pasta videos blow up online. She wanted fresh herbs for her shoots. Next thing I know, I’m knee-deep in dirt, planting basil and tomatoes in her backyard. I swear, the secret to happy plants is talking to them. I hum while I water, and those leaves perk right up. Mulching was a total game-changer for me—keeps the soil moist and weeds out. I even started composting kitchen scraps, and wow, the veggies love it. Watching her pick my basil for her famous pesto? Pure joy. It’s wild how a little care and some good soil can turn into something that feeds so many people, both on screen and at the table. #gardeningtips #herbgarden #urbanfarming #Gardening
