Not with a toddler.

But something like that shouldn’t be rated FSK18. You can take your teens there at some point. It’s much easier to consume certain things when you haven’t seen how they are made. And it creates an appreciation for the creation itself. Which brings us back to the garden.

Whether with or without a slaughterhouse ... Visiting a conventional agricultural operation is undoubtedly much more valuable for general education than holidays on the farm. Where wine grows, peaches also thrive excellently. Here with us (Central Germany) there are good years and bad years. Since apricots also bloom quite early, late frost can sometimes significantly damage the harvest. But there is hardly anything as enjoyable as sun-ripened (i.e., truly ripe) apricots freshly picked from the tree. Peaches are rarer here but grow well too.

Of course, I meant the vegetables in the greenhouse. If you allocate the price to the vegetables, you would never buy them in the supermarket in your life. However, home-grown vegetables naturally taste a lot better.

This year we got a Berberis Trio planting box for our tomato plants. It already looks more high-quality than normal plastic plant containers and is also super practical. Financially, growing tomatoes probably only pays off at the earliest in the 5th year. I hope it lasts that long.
The same with the much-praised raised beds. Probably a raised bed will be prepared for us in autumn, so that it can be used in spring right away. But when I see the prices for it at the hardware store, I’d rather not calculate what the vegetables from the raised bed cost.

Currently, our lawn is still suitable for playing football, and I’d rather not put a greenhouse on it. Maybe in 10-15 years, when we and the child are older, a greenhouse will be built on the property.

Oh, depending on temperament, you can also do that with a toddler. Our child finds it completely logical that an animal has to be slaughtered/eaten when someone else is hungry. At 2 years old, he already preferred watching documentaries about the Great White Shark and got terribly upset when the shark didn’t catch the seal and had to “go to sleep” hungry. That’s why Happy Feet is dead to him to this day. I don’t necessarily have to turn the sweet bunny’s neck in front of his eyes now, but he knows/has already seen on TV how a fish or pig is gutted.

Huh? As a farmer, I might be grateful if city folks and their brood didn't constantly get on my nerves.

Huh again? Some even grow tomatoes inside the house, so there supposedly isn't any space on 500m²?

Everyone can do as they please with their kitchen garden. What should be banned much more are thuja hedges. ;)

Thuja hedges are great. Such a touch of cemetery always brings peace to the residential area.
