Harrods, a department store in London, is now offering gardening services. More and more people are renting allotments (government parts of lands available to rent on a monthly basis) within the city in order to create their own garden to grow their own organic fruits and vegetables. Some people have to wait up to 10 years before there is an allotment available for them to rent. From the article "the upmarket London department store, Harrods, have begun offering a gardening service for allotment owners who don't want to get their hands dirty." I thought it was interesting that the demand for the land space is so high to grow their own fruits and veggies instead of just finding them at a grocery store.
