My best friend in childhood’s father (David) has been growing tobacco his entire life and drying it in his garage. He’s in his late 70’s now and still smokes his own tobacco out of his pipe . He grows the shit in a suburban backyard too, it’s not a huge yard at all. Side note: He was a Klansman back before I was born, and they had a swastika flag in their house growing up. Good neighbors.
