Growing Backyard Bananas

~:: Little Eco Footprints ::~

bananasBananas are one of my favorite backyard fruit. The rows of perfectly uniform blemish-free bananas you see at the supermarket come at a huge cost. Here in Australia, about 100,000 tonnes of perfectly edible bananas are thrown out each year because they don’t pass the supermarkets’ ruthless shape, size, and appearance test. Thankfully growing backyard bananas is easy if you live in the right climate.
