I'm totally an organic person because I like to know that what I am eating has nothing that is used to make chickens bigger or keep veggies from going bad faster. What better way to have fresh, organic food than having your very own garden. For about $40 we made our own garden in our backyard and in a few months we will be enjoying the fruit of our labor. It was such a neat project for my husband and I and believe it or not we LOVED it. Although we waited until late night for two reason Arizona is so hot I did not want to be outside in the 115 degree weather and the fact that I can not do anything with a 1 year old.
There was perfect spot on the backside of our house that already has dirt but was empty. We started by breaking the dirt and adding an organic mulch on top of it. As I was putting seeds and planting my hubby was getting the chicken wire fence ready so that our lovely dogs would not get in there and dig out the seeds. That was pretty much it, that fast we were done and according to everything I read on how to grow your own food we should be enjoying it in about three months or less.
Even though we are beginners at this I feel pretty good about it and I know we will learn as we go.
