Here at Harrowsmith, we couldn’t be happier when we hear about folks transforming their driveways or lawns into flourishing food gardens. It’s not just happening in rural areas; it’s taking root in cities and suburbs too. Even those who never thought of gardening as a worthwhile use of space or time are now embracing it.
The enthusiasm is contagious, and we’re thrilled to see more people discovering the joys, health benefits and cost savings of growing their own food, regardless of where they live. From berries to fruit trees to nuts, every
feature plant in your garden has the potential to produce food if you plan for it and take advantage of the harvest.
START WITH SEEDS
Starting seeds is one of the most gratifying ways to create a garden. From vibrant flowers like sunflowers and zinnias to native plants like blue vervain and wild lupines to delicious veggies like tomatoes and peppers, the possibilities are endless!
Get your hands dirty, follow the seed packet instructions, and watch your garden come to life.
Happy planting!
