Tips on Growing  Vegetables

There is nothing like eating fresh grown vegetables from you own garden. Just knowing that the food you serve your family is the most nutritious...and pesticide free it can be, will warm your heart. There is no substitute for home-grown vegetables. With a little extra effort you can produce more then enough to preserve for those cold winter months, or any unexpected emergency that living in todays world seems more and more likely.

Reduce your energy footprint by producing your own vegetables. There is a significant savings in energy by growing your own. No mechanical planters, cultivators, sprayers, or harvesters. How much fuel do they burn? How about all the synthetic fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides? No processing and packaging...think of all the plastic and paper used to prepare vegetables for market. No transportation costs...how much jet and truck fuel is used to bring 'fresh' vegetables from thousands of miles from your neighborhood store?
