Why Bother Gardening In Today's World? 

The image If you have that "yearning" inside you to start (or improve) your garden, you don't need any "reasons".

But sometimes the thought does come up -- why do we garden at all?

I mean, after all, we can buy flowers at the store, can't we?

We can certainly get our vegetables at the store.

But you and I know it's not that simple, don't we? There's something thrilling, even inspiring, about having a garden of your own.

For centuries, many people have known...
The Irresistible Attraction Of Gardening

Maybe it's the same for you as it is for me...

You picture yourself in your own garden.

It's peaceful in the garden; you're surrounded by lush greenery, cool moist soil, and colorful explosions of flowers.

The scent of the flowers and the soil is carried on the breeze that whispers through the garden. As you walk around, looking at the plants and flowers, you're amazed to think that you grew them from seeds and "starters", and that your care and work brought all this life into the world.

Maybe you, like me, enjoy thinking of how it feels to gather up ripe tomatoes, crisp green beans, and sweet lettuce for your evening meal - from your own garden. There's nothing quite like the taste of food your grew yourself.

Not only can you enjoy vine-ripened goodies that have the added flavor only nature can provide, you will also have the satisfaction of knowing that you grew your fruit and veggies on your own.

And, don't forget, it is convenient and pleasurable to have a variety of tasty treats growing in your own backyard.

Not to mention the fact that it will save you money...but that's just a side benefit.
