July was a busy month on our site, even if some stories didn’t hit the farming beat. We covered three wildly different topics that grabbed attention and sparked discussion. Below is a quick run‑through of each piece, why it mattered, and what you might have missed.
We kicked off the month with a look back at wrestling legend Hulk Hogan, who passed away at 71. The article compiled iconic photos that traced his path from a struggling musician to the face of WWE’s Hulkamania. Readers loved the visual timeline because it showed how a larger‑than‑life persona can become a cultural icon. If you’re into sports history or love a good flashback, this piece gave you a concise, image‑rich story without the usual fluff.
Next up was a hard‑hitting report on Walsall, a town in England facing a dip in GDP, a wave of business closures, and a third of its children living in absolute poverty. The piece broke down the numbers in plain language and explained how rising living costs and stagnant wages are hitting families and small firms alike. We also highlighted the council’s new strategic plan aimed at boosting the local economy and supporting vulnerable households. The story resonated with readers who care about community resilience and social equity.
The final major story of the month centered on former Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey. British police charged him with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault, involving three women between 2021 and 2022. Our coverage laid out the timeline, the charges, and the immediate response from Arsenal, which cut ties with the player soon after the investigation began. The article stayed factual, avoided speculation, and gave readers the key details they needed to understand the case’s impact on the sports world.
Even though our core focus is urban agriculture across Africa, we make room for big news that affects a wider audience. Each July story was chosen for its relevance, human interest, or the way it sparked conversation online. Whether you’re a fan of wrestling, a concerned citizen watching economic trends, or a follower of football news, there was something here for you.
Looking ahead, we’ll be back to our usual green‑focused coverage, bringing you the latest on city farms, sustainable practices, and policy shifts shaping African food systems. In the meantime, feel free to scroll through the archive, relive the moments that mattered, and share any stories you think deserve a deeper dive.
That’s the July 2025 roundup. Stay tuned for more updates, and thanks for checking out our archive.
