That's a fact right there. You pick an apple off the tree or a peach that's just about to fall - the kind that would bruise in your hand without even pressing into it. It comes down to being a connoisseur in my books. The more you care about food, the more you're inclined to eventually grow it. And what a treat it is to grow your own food!
Recently, we went through the greenhouse and planted the herbs. They're all organic seeds and they'll end up taking 1/3 of the whole greenhouse. I find that they're just too important not to. Having a few great big basil bushes and fresh taragon - they're absolute game changers. So having that project done is terrific. And for the rest of you, get on growing! Now is definitely the time to hop to it and get some planting done!
If you've never owned a greenhouse and wonder where to get started, it really is best to throw yourself into it. There's got to be a lot of places that will sell you a greenhouse you can put together in a few hours - or if you have the materials and the desire, built your own! And once you've got it set up, forget it. Now it's a matter of getting the benches, pots, soil, seeds and presto - you're watering daily before you leave the house and every day you're rewarded with slow and steady progress that's very rewarding. In fact, the very act of watering the plants in the morning is something a lot of people will tell you is very calming and a great way to begin the day.
So again, get a greenhouse going now if you haven't already and we'll go through more tips for getting the most out of them!
