PURPOSE: Organic Gardening and Sustainable Lifestyles | |
| Organic foods are higher in vitamins and minerals than conventional farm produced foods, because the soil has more diverse and healthy living organisms and trace minerals. At the heart of all organic growing is the art and science of fertilizing organically. There is no way to garden sustainably without a proper understanding of the soil in which your garden grows. When a human being lacks essential nutrients, their body weakens and suffers. A plant gains it's strength and nutritional edge from the soil in which it is fed. When your plants don't have nutritious food, you don't have nutritious food. "In the depths of winter, I finally found that within me lay an invincible summer." - Albert Camus |
