Because many people in and around Melbourne have a limited garden space, they find it difficult to grow and maintain a good selection of herbs and vegetables. The feedback we get is that many of our customers have small to tiny yards and cannot plant as many herbs and vegetables as they would like.
This issue has led me to do some research on how to maximize the production of herbs and vegetables in limited spaces. Most of us have family and children and the more we can save on food the better, but our “shoebox” living arrangements often restricts our ability to grow the amount of produce we need.
I have always had my doubts about the true benefits of supplying my family with store bought produce. In my experience, the more food you can produce at home the more certain you can be that what you are eating is actually doing you good.
Have you seen the story of the exploding watermelons? Here is a Herald/Sun link to that story: Click Here. Without trying to be a panic merchant, I just wish to make a simple statement about all this. Farmers worldwide grow crops to make money. If there is a chemical, pesticide, hormone or whatever, available that assures they can increase their income, you can bet they are going to use it. As consumers we purchase and eat produce without actually knowing what went into producing it.
Before we go any further, just ask yourself the following questions:
• Are you concerned about feeding your children pesticide laced veggies?
• Are you getting poorer quality veggies from your greengrocer?
• Are the exorbitant prices of organically grown produce out of your league?
• Is your yard too small to create a reasonable sized garden to meet your family’s needs?
• Would you like arms reach access to a wide range of fresh culinary herbs and seasonal vegetables?
If you answered yes to these questions, then you should try growing as much of your own produce as possible. In order to help you utilize your garden space to the max, I would suggest you get hold of of a book titled, “How To Grow Herbs And Vegetables In Limited Spaces,”by Australian horticulturalist, John Bee.
Now John Bee is no newcomer to the world of horticulture. John has written several books and garden magazine articles about the benefits and methods of home gardening. This latest publication is certain to become a best seller. It explains everything the home-gardener needs to create a lush, productive garden in the most limited of space. What’s more, you can slash thousands of dollars off your yearly food bill by doing so.
What is especially great about John’s latest book is that anyone can start immediately after reading the first chapter. He will explain,
• Which herbs and veggies grow best in limited spaces
• How To water, fetilize and maintain your garden
• Which plants need sun and which can survive in shade.
• And best of all- Top Tips on how you can extend the growing season of just about any herbs and vegetables.
Imagine having instant access to herbs and vegetables without have to spend fuel and time running to the market. Recipe requires a sprig of parsley, a clove of garlic? There it is! Right there in your own yard, fresh, healthy and ready to use.
Don’t waste time procrastinating, spending money on food products you can grow yourself at home for a fraction of the cost. Click on this link and go to John’s page where he can tell you more about this special offer. You won’t regret it!
