Joe asked:


I just moved to San Antonio from Minneapolis. I’m living on a restricted budget, so I wanted to know if I could grow some food in my yard to feed myself. I’m completely new to the climate and all of the plant life seems foreign; thus, I think it would be unwise to garden in the same way I do in Minneapolis. My yard here is generally sunny, but there are some shady areas as well. Whatever tips you can give me relating to growing produce or general outdoor plant care in San Antonio (or an area with a similar climate) would be fantastic. Thanks!
