GREENVILLE — Since retiring 12 years ago, Kevin Fuchs has been expanding his gardening hobby in many ways.
Fuchs has always been an avid gardener, but since COVID, he wanted to be more self-sufficient and leaned more into gardening. He wanted to extend his growing season and started hydroponic gardening so he could grow crops in the colder months.
