Nothing much beats fresh herbs and vegetables from your own garden. Especially if grown organically. Following my Father's tradition, I make my own compost and only use organic fertilizer, mainly poultry and some mushroom compost.
Whenever possible my veggie garden only gets watered with rainwater from the tank. And I avoid the use of pesticides. Instead, I am on a mission to try to practice complementary planting. For example, planting marigolds, nasturtiums etc to keep whitefly and other pests away from my crops.
I still have a lot to learn so any tips you may have would be much appreciated.
An enormous veggie garden would be ideal :D... however, if all you have is a small patch for your veggie garden or a place to plant some herbs & vegetables in pots... it can be so rewarding! And healthy too!
Happy gardening!
