Have your grocery costs doubled? Do you want to buy more organic food but can’t afford it or maybe don’t even have access to it?
One easy solution to both of these is to start a small home garden. Gardening gives us affordable access to nutrient dense foods, but also has many other benefits. It gets you outside in the sun, it gets you in the immune boosting soil, it provides stress relief and helps us stay physically active.
Research from the Journal of Environmental Horticulture found that those who garden have reduced stress, anxiety and depression. I knew there was something magical about gardening!
So today, I invited Patty Ward to come and share some gardening tips with us. Her and her husband have more than 30 years of gardening experience and now own a wonderful heirloom seed business called Sow Right Seeds.
From her wealth of knowledge, she’s sharing top tips for beginner gardeners!
Some of the tips:
Start by growing what you love
Start small, 3-5 varieties
Good soil
Good light
Watering well
And lots of other helpful things like choosing the perfect garden spot, how to start seeds, the learning curve and how to know what your seeds need and so much more!
