If you're looking for locally grown fruits and vegetables, why not try home grown? Growing produce in the backyard can be easy. Follow these tips to start your garden:

  • Choices. Consider what you and your family like to eat; how much you'll eat; and sunlight availability.
  • Soil. Conduct an easy soil test available at local garden stores to determine whether soil has the proper nutrient balance.
  • Feed. Based on soil test, complete a balanced nutrient application. Commercial fertilizers are generally the easiest to use.
  • Time. Planting and spacing depths are critical, so read the depth notes on the seed packets.
  • Water. Mature plants need about an inch of water each week. NewsUSA
