urban gardener

Metropolitan plant tender

An urban gardener is someone who grows plants—vegetables, herbs, flowers—in a city environment.

The practice adapts to limited space: rooftop plots, balcony containers, community gardens, or window boxes.

She became an urban gardener after moving to the city, turning her fire escape into a tomato farm.
