The Magnolia Network’s Homegrown returns with an eco-friendly episode, “Go Green,” airing at 1:00 pm on Saturday, April 13, 2024. The episode follows host Jamila Norman as she helps a homeowner embrace sustainable and eco-friendly practices, showcasing her expertise in urban farming and passion for environmental conservation.
In this episode, Jamila Norman, an Atlanta-based farmer and host of Homegrown, visits a homeowner seeking to incorporate eco-friendly solutions into their living space. Jamila begins by introducing Katahdin hair sheep as a natural and sustainable method for field maintenance. The sheep help keep the grass trimmed and reduce the need for lawn mowers, fuel, and other maintenance equipment, promoting a greener approach to yard care.
Jamila also guides the creation of raised garden beds, a space-efficient way to grow a variety of plants, herbs, and vegetables. The raised beds offer improved soil drainage and easier access for planting, tending, and harvesting.
Jamila also assists in planting native fruit trees, a sustainable practice that provides food and habitat for local wildlife. The episode emphasizes the importance of selecting tree species that are well-adapted to the region’s climate and soil conditions, ensuring their long-term success and resilience.
Throughout the episode, Jamila shares her extensive knowledge of urban farming and sustainable practices, empowering viewers to make positive changes in their own spaces.
Homegrown: Go Green adds to the series’ focus on environmental awareness and community building. Previous episodes have featured Jamila’s work in transforming backyards into functional farms and educating families about the benefits of growing their own food.
With her degree in Environmental Engineering and over a decade of farming experience, Jamila is well-equipped to guide others on their journey towards eco-friendly living.
Homegrown airs on the Magnolia Network at 1.00 pm on Saturday, April 13, 2024.
