Eat Healthier, Grow Your Own Foods, know your Seeds

A Beautiful Backyard Home Garden. 

We all remember that last roadside stop we made and picked up those fresh grown vegetables, took them home and made one of the most delicious meals we have ever had.

We all want that level of flavor in our meals, flavors that are often the result of the gardening techniques used the chemicals avoided, and the freshness.

A Small Garden can still be a Good Garden

Well, you don’t have to own a large tract of land to grow at least some of your own foods and herbs.
Many people, living in homes on very small pieces of land are able to grow a surprising number of plants, herbs and other foods.
In fact, I know of people who only have a small area on their apartment patio who, through careful planning are growing seasonal foods and year-round herbs for their personal enjoyment.

GMO - Genetically Modified Organisms and your Foods

Corn in Field
The business of genetically modifying foods has drawn criticism for decades and still there is no clear-cut data that can totally condemn this practice.

Agri-Business is the largest proponent of GMO’s as they focus on changes that allow for larger production volumes of certain foods.

On the other side of the fence are the people who can show that, unchecked; many of these modified foods have been proven as being dangerous to the health of the consumer. More and more of us will need to take a position as this practice expands around the world.
