This is our very first posting, this weeks post is all about freshness and the best way to get there! I chose this topic because of the story behind it, as a child I grew up on a sizable farm in rural Kansas. When we relocated to Washington my father also kept a garden and various fruit trees and bushes, as I grew older the gardens got smaller and smaller each year until there was almost no sign of one at all. As my passion for cooking and whole foods began to blossom I spent a lot of time reminising on the seasons of the past and the abundance of food that our garden provided. Desperately wanting the satisfaction of growing my own food, I did just that! A very good friend of mine reffered this book to me called "Gardening By The Foot"and in this book was a wealth of information on maximizing space in your garden(i could go on about it but it's too lengthy) answering a lot of looming questions that were troubling me. OK...so enough about me, if you require the best for you and your loved ones here's the most efficient way to get it!
- Find a local material yard that has the correct soil mixture
- Go to your local nursery and select seeds that will do well in your climate
- Select an area of your property with the most natural light
- Follow basic planting procedures
- Make watering a habit
Waiting for your next posting. very interesting
