Grow Your Own Organic Food
In Your Back Yard
|
Growing your own food is not a new concept, during the depression small back yard gardens are what allowed many people to survive. I have talked with many people that grew up in the 20's and 30's, they all told me that if not for the back yard garden many times they would have gone hungry.
In modern times we have given up the garden, and replaced it with the grocery store. It is more convenient to stop at the grocery store on the way home from work to supply our needs. We think we are too busy to grow our own food. So why would you think of going back to the ways of the past, and grow your own food? 1. BETTER NUTRITION & TASTIER FOOD! Studies have shown that organically grown food has more nutrients that we need than food grown with synthetic pesticides. 2. SAVE MONEY Growing your own food can help cut the cost of the grocery bill. 3. PROTECT FUTURE GENERATIONS The average child receives four times more exposure than an adult to at least eight widely used cancer-causing pesticides in food. |
