Welcome to Just My Garden! This is the first post in, hopefully, a LONG series of gardening tips, tricks, ideas and inspirations. We hope to create a garden spot on the web to enable gardeners, garden lovers, and wannabe green thumbs to discuss, chat and talk about gardening topics they love!
Plants have the power to change our lives. They enable the simple and therapeutic pleasure of working in one’s own garden. They play a basic role in providing clean air and serve as a nutritious basis for healthy living.
The satisfying experiences of planting, cultivating, and harvesting fruits and vegetables creates a lifelong appreciation for healthy living. Gardens are a microcosm of the environment. Landscaping with water, native plants, and habitat-friendly gardens is a portal for understanding concepts and issues in environmental education both at home and at school.
Although Americans consistently rank gardening as a favorite hobby, many lack the knowledge and confidence needed to be successful gardeners.
Welcome! We look forward to our growth, and YOUR participation!
