-- Grow Your Own: Is there a corner in your yard, or some section of your apartment balcony, that gets sun most of the day? Well, farm it! Seriously, you'd be amazed at how much you can grow in a tiny space. In a box roughly two feet square, you can grow enough mixed salad greens to keep you going for months!

Spend the money on a some tools (like a shovel, hoe, sprinklers), buy some seeds, and start a garden. There's organic for ya. Can't figure out why this always gets overlooked with the millions of homeowners/renters.

See above.

Because people have forgotten both the joy of gardening and the flavour of home grown produce. They are also unsure how to go about it now that a generation or two didn't bother. It's sad really, because there is no sensible reason why many of us shouldn't grow a % of the food we eat and all be healthier for it. However, people do what they want - that's the joy of living in a free society.

I think growing your own food is such an awesome thing. Everything tastes so much better! Even if you just start with a pot or two of herbs.

Growing pot is illegal, Amby!

shut up! you sooooooo know what I meant! :crying:

I don't garden, but mother nature provides papayas, guava, avocados, apple bananas and mangoes in our yard. Thank god I love fruit.

We grew a lot of our own veggies this year. sweet peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, yellow squash, corn, beans. The rabbits and ground hogs got the peas and parsnips though :(

A couple of our local grocery stores now carry organic cheddar cheese. Its about $1 less than the imported English and Irish cheddar that I used to buy, and its taste and texture are about equal.

Sometimes I can even get organic local veggies cheaper than shipped in "traditionally" (stupid terminology really if you think about it :P ) grown veggies. Our local "farmer's markets" suck though. I guess there's not a lot of local farmers.

We have an exclusive organic store in town, outside of the produce, all the stuff comes in brown paper bags stating it's organic whatever. No nutrition information, most of the time, not even the manufacturer or packager. I just like to know who to sue if the stuff kills me.

Gave up on the gardens, just feeding the deer, rabbits, and maybe, even the neighbors. How can you grow a worm free apple without pesticides?
