A vegetable garden is a great way to connect with the outdoor space around you. Veggie gardens offer enormous health and economic benefits and if you've got kids, it's the best way to introduce them to a love of good food and of the outdoors.
Veggie gardens don't have to be huge and can happily co-exist with your ornamental flowers and trees. If you don't have much space, you can keep it simple and small by growing a few lettuces.
But if you've got a bit more space, you might be interested to know that there are families, even in the cities, who live quite happily on the vegetables they grow themselves.
Remember to stick to organic and chemical-free pesticides and fertilizers, and just like veggies from the shop, wash carefully before you eat.
