If you've ever wondered what the point of growing your own garden is, an Eco Chic Parent is here to tell you one of her motivations to do so.
A memory just came to me. My mom while standing at the stove, asked us kids, "What would you like stuffed zucchini or fried (on a skillet) eggplant for dinner?" We said eggplant...her response was, "Well... go pick one from the yard."
Talk about fresh!
I want my family to have all the great things I did...like a huge garden and fresh veggies. They are luxuries you know.
Do you like gardening? Or have a few plants in a pot? Are you considering a vegetable garden? These are great ways to GREEN a home. Even if it is having a few pots of herbs on a window shelf.
Your reason for starting a garden may not be as sentimental as Tara's, however she does make a very valid point that it is a simple way to green your home, and one in which you will reap the benefits from with fresh vegetables or herbs.
