Essential tips to start growing some of your own healthy food

When we started gardening a few years ago, I wish I knew the tips and had the resources which Mike Nocks introduces in this interview.  I want to save you the struggle we had.  

It's worth the effort to grow some of your own food.  But I might as well make it easier for you, right?  

For healthier eating, there is nothing like growing some of your own food. But, as I discovered when I began gardening, it is challenging to know what resources you need and what questions to ask to start. Mike Nocks has been gardening for years and here he shares valuable information about seeds, garden design, companion planting, and the best books for beginning.

After you watch the video, let me know what you are planning to start growing this year.  A favorite herb?  A tomato plant in a container?  A 4X4 bed of greens?

(Oh, I did buy the Vegetable Gardener's Handbook and the Medicinal Herbs book.  They've been very helpful.)
