Travis Kelce shared that even before he became a football player, he used to help his dad in the garden. He didn’t do all the digging and planting, but he had fun and learned a lot from his dad. ?Tell you what my dad actually used to have me in the garden all the time. I wasn’t more so spread and mauled he had all the fun and you planted them and all you wanted to.? He told this to someone, seen in a video uploaded by NFL on Instagram story.

Travis Kelce encourages self-sufficiency
Travis in a short video at an event said, that he and his team were in Kansas City, Missouri. This event helps people by giving them plants, seeds, and tools so they can grow their own fruits and vegetables. Travis mentioned that not everyone can easily go to a nearby grocery store, so it’s important to provide resources to help people grow their own fresh produce at home.
?You know, that’s always a tough spot for communities. Not everybody can get to the grocery store close to them, so it’s just about providing them with the resources they need. This way, they can grow their own produce and have fresh food in their households,? Travis Kelce at Tomato Days.
