Over the weekend,We decided to have a vegetable garden in front our house and this is the right time as spring season started. My kids are very  excited about it.

First thing, We clean the area  from rocks,weeds including the roots  and examine the soil. Is it predominantly clay, sand or a sandy loam? The latter is the best.

My son is enjoying digging and pulling out the weeds . Digging out the roots is to prevent the weeds from growing further. The root system needs to be completely removed or else they will just grow back.

Gardening are great fun?  Bonding time with your family. Can help relieve stress  and According to the Organic Center, the results of over 100 studies conducted on organic vegetables indicate that organically grown vegetables contain higher levels of health promoting nutrients than those grown by non-organic methods.
