Results: How does your garden grow?
Since food prices keep going up, and now even more chemicals (even PFAS) are being sprayed on our food, I’m going to try a bigger garden of my own this year! I’m interested to see if anyone else is planning a garden this year?

Use your vegetables scraps filled in water for a few days and pout that water for your garden. Use onion peels, garlic peels, and egg shells

Those toilet paper empty rolls that people recycle or discard, place soil into them, folding the bottom, insert a seed and when ready to plant, just plant the entire empty roll and plant inside to ground. beats paying money for seed starters.
