Save Green by Growing Green

According to the Garden Writers Association 2009 Edible Gardening Trends Report 41 million US households grew vegetable gardens last year and 19.5 million grew herb gardens. These numbers of edible gardening projects are expected to rise in 2010 and the main reason is to supplement household food supplies.
The Happy Gardener, Inc has been helping families and communities throughout North America grow healthy, organic vegetables, herbs and fruits since 2006 when they introduced their exclusive line of Happy Naturals ™ organic garden products.
“Just Add Dirt” Eco-Grow Kits are The Happy Gardener’s newest product addition. These kits offer the most eco-friendly grow kit on the market by including everything needed for growing organic, nutritious edibles in 100% compostable pots. Simple instructions make it easy for the most amateur gardener and the containers allow for small space gardening too. Also included in the kit are organic seeds, SeaResults ™ Organic Plant Food, soil conditioner and water retaining mats. Just add your own dirt and get growing.
“We wouldn’t think of having our customers pay for dirt. Doesn’t that just seem wrong?” states The Happy Gardener’s founder and product developer, Annette Pelliccio. “Get the dirt from your backyard or compost pile. Our focus is to help families grow nutritious food while saving money. Growing our own berries, salad mix and a variety of vegetables saves my family of three an average of $380 during the summer months alone.”
Saving money isn’t the only reason to grow your own organic produce. Rutgers University conducted a study comparing the nutritional values of organically grown produce with commercially grown. An example of study findings includes organically grown lettuce containing 55 more grams of calcium and 509 more grams of iron than the commercially grown variety.
Gardening is once again becoming part of our country’s daily lifestyle, creating family balance in today’s technology obsessed world. Pelliccio states, “We would love to help the 80+ million virtual gardeners on Facebook’s Farmville take their knowledge of growing animated produce and get back outside in the fresh air and play in the real dirt.”

This just reinforces how worthwhile it is to grow your own vegies. Now it is not only a nice feel good thing of getting out into the garden and harvesting your own, but clearly better for your health in nutrients than shop bought.

Does anyone know if there is any truth to the rumor that someone in Sam Walton’s family (Wal-Mart) owns Lowe’s. I was told it is his brother-in-law or someone without the same last name. Does anyone know for sure?

The way I see it with the ever changing news its hard to keep up to date on current facts. Most of these commenters arent taking into effect the change of the global economy and how much of a different it has on news technologies / medical growth / economic / political issues. But anyways nice read, defiantly enjoyed your post. Found your blog on google search engines btw… most people always wonder how people are finding them.
