Why organic?

Organic growing restricts the use of artificial chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Instead, organic growers rely on developing a healthy, fertile soil and growing a mixture of crops. Genetically modified (GM) crops and ingredients are not allowed under organic standards.

Going organic may mean that you have to make a trade-off between glossy supermarket produce for better tasting produce that isn't perfect in shape or size. Many home gardeners think this is a price worth paying. You'll be able to grow different crops which are expensive to buy in supermarkets, and growing your own vegetables is both fun and rewarding. Among the many satisfying experiences an organic vegetable garden offers are: fresh air, exercise, sunshine, knowledge, and mental therapy. And don't forget the fresh foods, which are rich in vitamins and minerals, harvested at the perfect stage of maturity.

You can also easily make compost from garden and kitchen waste. You will save because you do not need to buy costly chemical fertilizers and pesticides with organic gardening.

groOrganic Gardens can be installed in backyards, health care facilities, senior housing, parks, apartment complexes, condo complexes, housing tracts, and can be customized to fit in any yard, courtyard, or even on a small apartment balcony. During these uncertain economic times we all look for ways to save. High cost is a factor that often deters us from purchasing organic foods. A home garden can be cost efficient, fun, benefits our environment, and can be used as an emergency food source. Creating a healthy lifestyle has never been easier.
