I think we're all at a point where we seriously need to start considering growing our own food. Kudos to those who already are, but to those of you who haven't gotten your hands dirty yet... it's really not that hard. I find gardening incredibly relaxing and fun. It grounds you on a spiritual and physical levels. I have noticed that people have gotten so out of tune with where their food comes from and what exactly goes into growing it, that it's been reflecting in other areas of their lives.
If you don't have a backyard, don't worry. Kitchen gardening is possible all year round! You can grow many veggies and herbs right in your own kitchen, regardless of your cold climate and lack of outdoor garden space. Check out some of my recent endeavors:
Here I have some wheatgrass, sunflower shoots and pea shoots, after a few days
After a few weeks, this is what the plants looks like (the empty tray on the left was an unsuccessful experiment). On the other side of the table, I planted some bell peppers, italian parsley, sweet basil, cherry bell radishes, goji berries (of course all organic)
So go ahead! Get personal with your food!
