Welcome To Squidoo's Home Garden Department 

This page is among a set of Squidoo pages pertaining to everything you could desire for your home garden. This specific page offers the DIY home garden person the resources needed to grow their own vegetables and healthy foods.

If you haven't been convinced from the health reports of harmful additives to your 'fresh' vegetables, or the rising cost of foods, I believe you soon will be........as the cost for healthy nourishing foods will continue to escalate.

Organic gardening is the most healthy vegetable gardening practice, assuring you that you'll be giving your body the nutrients and vitamins it needs, while eliminating toxins and chemicals.

I personally grow a few things like strawberries, raspberries, rhubarb, gooseberries, and chives in my outdoor home garden, and have plans to grow my vegetables during the winter inside - even if my 'indoor greenhouse room' is not fully constructed by that time. Yep! Got my organic gardening seeds ready and waiting for winter, as they won't be available locally for purchase during the winter! :)

At the bottom of the page are links to view the Squidoo Home Garden Store's other departments.

Great lens, I hadn't thought of getting a mushroom kit before, Usually just buy them when I want to use them.

@EverythingMouse a cool idea for a decorative garden is a waterfall. I've got some kit ideas on one of my lenses

Heading on over to a lot of links on this lens. I am trying to grow some food in our hard and need to do this all in containers I think. I haven't got much space and also everyone here is obsessed with how their garden looks - this means the ideal is concrete, a bbq and a pool. Not quite my idea of how things should be though! So I am slowly learning how to change my yard!
