Whether you are living in an apartment or living on acres of land, it is possible to grow at least some of your own food…all it takes is the simple act of sowing seeds!
Now, a couple of years ago, I have to admit, I was a little nervous to get started with the whole process of sowing seeds and growing some of our own veggies! The truth is though, it’s all a learning experience! Some years are better than others, some plants thrive while others fail miserably. The joy is in the journey.
With that in mind, I thought I’d pull together a few posts from some of my favorite bloggers to help inspire you to get your hands dirty and push some seeds into soil! Trust me, in a couple of months you’ll be so happy for this simple act!
