Be Healthy, Eat Right
Our bodies need nutrients, and fresh, ripe vegetables and fruits provide those nutrients.
We want to eat a variety of those fruits and vegetables, and we want to make sure they were non-gmo seeds and that the plants are grown organically.
If we grow our own, we control those elements. We can buy non-gmo heirloom (heirloom means grown naturally not made in a lab) seeds. Then we grow them organically using no pesticides, only organic methods.
You are what you eat !
If we grow our own, we can also harvest the fruit or vegetable when it is ripe. The grocery stores contain fruits and vegetables that were picked when they were not ripe so they could be transported.
We are what we eat. Fruits and Vegetables are full of nutrients when they are left to vine ripen, let's eat them when we will get the highest nutrient count.
Grow your own Organic vegetables
Organic fruits and vegetables cost a log at the grocery stores. Two people can easily spend $50 a week if they eat the 5-7 servings a day that is recommended.If you grow the organic fruits and vegetables yourself you can afford to eat at a reasonalbe cost. If you plant seeds you can assure that you are getting heirloom organic seeds, and you can grow them without harmful substances.
Your own plants will be harvested when the fruit or vegetable is ripe. Produce that is sold commercially is picked before it is ripe so that it can be trucked around the country (or into the country from elsewhere.) Nutirients are lost when they are picked early.
Grocery store produce is picked up, squeezed and some put back becuase it is not right. Your own garden will not have other people touching your food. That is real important now.
