Tiffany Haddish has a cinderella story that has every black women screaming “yasssssssss” every time we see her on TV. So you can imagine when I saw her interview with Ellen talking about her garden at her home in South Central LA. I was OVERJOYED at the least. Tiffany Haddish’s garden sounded so similar to many of us in the BGWG fam I just could not share it.
Below is a clip of her explaining what she is growing and her goals of touring with Oprah to start “Tiff and O’s Vegetables” Isn’t that lit? From farmer’s markets across the country, she legit wants a farm and showing others how bomb gardening is. Nothing’s impossible I must add since a few months ago BGWG did not exist and I didn’t have a clue how powerful it would be.
Fyi, started at 1:09 to skip to the good stuff!

I find this story flooring because it’s all about speaking on that dream and taking that step. Tiffany Haddish worked at Bar Mitzvahs for the longest, I ran away from gardening for years. If you’re sketchy about doing something you love, don’t be.
