Obama will just make it illegal because the food grown isn’t for the general welfare.

Some of us believe that there should be an official White House garden, as the Roosevelts had during the Great Depression. I’d like to see Michelle and Barry out there in overalls with rakes and hoes . . . but I won’t hold my breath. They’d rather work out than work outside.

A victory garden is a big help. But that was then and this is now.

America doesn’t succeed when it just tries to survive. It succeeds when it tries to thrive. So don’t just garden, but try and garden better.

Healthier plants. Bigger yields. Extra crops to trade. Fewer bad insects, weeds, pest animal and bird losses, and plant diseases. More nutritious vegetables.

Gardening isn’t just poking holes in the ground, dropping in seeds and watering occasionally. It is a science, and the more you know the better you do.

Seed sales up...way up. For those of you in tight quarters; don’t forget container gardening or ‘square foot gardening’...very easy with very healthy and tasty results!
