Have you ever thought about where your food comes from and if it’s really helping or hurting your health?…
Globally, commercial agriculture systems are in crisis. Decades of poor stewardship of the land and the overuse of pesticides has meant that most of the produce you buy in the store does not have the full spectrum of nutrients it should, is contaminated with pesticide residue, and what’s worse, may not be safe to eat because it contains bacteria that cause food poisoning!
These issues have led more people to turn towards growing at least some of their own food. Whether you’re an experienced grower or a novice gardener, learning to grow your own food, even in the smallest of spaces, can help you take charge of your health, save you money, and bring you satisfaction and joy!
