The  Benefits of Having A Small Garden

The benefits of having a small garden are many and practical. You may think you do not have enough room for a garden, but I am here to tell you that it does not take as much room as you think. Most people only want to plant four or five items and that does not take up much room unless you are planting items like green beans or peas. And those items can be done in a small place if you have the right kind of trellis for it to climb up. Finding room is worth the resulting benefits!

Pick out some of your favorite vegetables that you hate paying high prices for at the super market and plant those items. My family loves home grown tomatoes and you know how high those can get at the grocery store! We always plant tomatoes, okra, bell peppers, and squash for sure.  Occasionally we plant watermelons, however watermelons do not seem to do well where I live.

Nothing in the world taste better than picking your vegetables right off the vine, cooking them on the stove, and then eating them at the table! Fresh food just has a different taste than food that has been transported to the store several days or even a week earlier. Most vegetables are picked a little before they are ripe just so they will not ruin by the time you get to the store.
Some other benefits of having a small garden are saving money at the store, the feeling of achievement it gives you to eat something you have grown, and getting outside to work it and the exercise it brings. In case you are not aware, having a garden can be work! But you can make that work pay off for a long time. Be sure and freeze and can up your extra vegetables to eat during the winter months.

All the benefits listed above are great reasons in themselves for having a small garden, but the bests reason of all is that it taste so deliciously good!
