It’s using your yard for more than just grass. That useless, stubborn weed.

One family in Pasadena, Calif., took this idea and ran with it. Nearly every nook and cranny of their yard sprouts something edible. Last year, they grew more than 4,000 pounds of food, including fruits, vegetables, herbs, eggs, milk, honey and more. And they live within a stone’s throw of Pasadena’s bustling shopping district.

Check out the video to catch a glimpse of their rural city life, which they’ve dubbed: Urban Homesteading. Sit back and meet Anais, Justin, Jordanne and their father, Jules, who pioneered this movement decades ago.
