Hardly a day passes without learning something new and terrible about processed food, chemicals in food and the dangers of eating junk food. Almost everything available in your supermarket is technically just more junk food. But nurturing and caring for a garden, and raising wholesome natural food on your own is a lot easier than you might think. The art of gardening is every year increasing, in the city as well as in the country, and the number, quality and taste of delicious homegrown foods is always growing too. Put fresh vegetables on your table within a couple of months and enjoy every minute of the experience, from planting to harvesting. Eating healthy, true organic homegrown foods, and fully enjoying the gardening life is easy, affordable and it's the whole point to learning to grow, prepare and eat your own organic produce. Even a modest city apartment can be home to a prosperous, vibrant garden, and here is everything you need to get started. Readers learn: The true healthy alternative in natural organic foods and the dangers of chemicals and preservatives The meaning, tradition and practice of organic gardening Detailed plans for any kind of garden, and what you need to get started The easiest and most hardy vegetables to plant and grow Soil preparation and practical advice for planting and harvesting Whether you're an aspiring urban gardener or a true country farmer - or something in between - this book contains all the information you need to get planted and growing quickly. This is the complete beginner's guide to why plant, what to plant and how to keep it growing. And readers can do it in a space small enough to fit an easy chair. Learning to avoid the pesticides, chemical additives and fillers that are everywhere - even in fresh vegetables - is not only possible, it's absolutely essential for a long and healthy life. Organic farming is natural, easy and almost free. You just need to know what to do, when to do it and continue getting inspiration from your own organic garden, day after day. Every aspiring gardener and reader will learn to: Quickly and naturally control pests and weeds Compost so that nothing in your garden - or your kitchen - is wasted Winter and summer care for your garden Plus easy, natural and delicious recipes for just some of the vegetables you'll be growing But obsessing about your health is not the point of any organic garden project. Producing and raising your own food has countless other obvious benefits. It's a healthy, engaging, and utterly satisfying hobby, and for some of us, it's an absolute obsession. It's also delicious and re-affirming, every time you sit down to a meal of the foods you've grown yourself. Planting an organic garden and taking off with organic, natural or even hydroponic gardening is rewarding, fulfilling and more fun than you probably know. Whether you've been gardening for years or are a total beginner, this beginner's guide is packed with tips, tricks and basics to grow just about anything that can be planted. The benefits of organic gardening extend easily into full physical and mental health, stress reduction and psychological balance. For some who start, it's just the beginning of a long and life affirming trip back to nature. This book will not only get you there, it'll feed you along the way. And for many years to come, your body and your whole family will thank you.
