There’s nothing quite like a fresh tomato from the vine. It tastes better than the one from the store, trust me. The vegetable is picked fresh when you’re ready, there’s no transportation involved, it’s not sitting on the shelves for days. So you get to taste that wonderful freshness and juiciness.
Having your own vegetable garden helps the environment in so many ways. If you grow your food without pesticides and chemicals, you don’t contribute to the unnecessary water and air pollution.
You’ll also reduce the use of fossil fuels that results in pollution due to the transport of produce from and to the supermarket. It may seem like a small thing but no effort is too small.
For long time gardeners, tending a garden provides enjoyment. Watching your garden bloom to a beautiful produce provides a sense of satisfaction. You can even make it a social interaction by inviting your neighbor who also garden.
