TikTok stars Griffin Johnson and Josh Richards are joining an impressive list of A-list celebrities who are taking part in an initiative to get more people planting home gardens. The two young influencers, who have been actively expanding their businesses beyond social media, have joined the Million Gardens Movement, a collaboration between Mardern Farmer and Big Green, a non-profit started by Elon Musk's brother, Kimbal Musk.
The move by the stars is to help ensure everyone has the knowledge to start their own gardens and help create a more sustainable world for us all.
