There
is a sense of pride and accomplishment that comes with growing
your own vegetables and for superb taste, top quality and
freshness, nothing comes close to what you can grow yourself!
Just think of ripe meaty tomatoes, sweet plump peppers,
enticing sugary sweet corn and crisp, succulent lettuce
residing just outside your backdoor – is your mouth watering
yet?
Not only is vegetable gardening enjoyable,
rewarding and highly economical, there is the added bonus of
the security you gain by controlling what goes on your
vegetables, how they are grown and when they are picked.
We
often hear the lament that vegetable gardens are only for
folks with large yards – horsefeathers!
If you are stuck for space, don't despair as
many vegetables such as cucumber, pole beans and peas, cherry
tomato and melons lend themselves to the practice of vertical
gardening using trellises, fences and pea netting.
Apartment dwellers shouldn't feel left out
either as peppers, tomatoes, beans, peas, lettuce and spinach
to name a few do quite well when grown in containers.
So why not sit back and put your feet up as
you choose next year's prize-winning vegetables from our
selection of trusted favourites and recent introductions!
