Victory Gardens…?


Back during WWI and WWII the U.S. Government created a campaign to promote personal preparedness and thriftiness. Well for the first time since then the First Lady, Michelle Obama started a presidential garden at the White House. This should say something about our economy, and what the government is suggesting for its citizens.
We need to be THRIFTY. Well welcome to our site 😉

“Crops to be planted in the coming weeks on the 1,100-square-foot, L-shaped patch near the fountain on the South Lawn include spinach, broccoli, various lettuces, kale and collard greens, assorted herbs and blueberries, blackberries and raspberries. There will also be a beehive. “We’re going to try to make our own honey here as well”, Michelle Obama stated”.

Plant a garden, please! Something as simple as one pot and a tomato plant. The Free way to get food. In Idaho we have a short growing season, but here in a week or two I will be posting photos and helpful tips on gardening.

Make sure to get some good quality heirloom seeds. That way you can use the seeds from one year to the next. Non heirloom veggies mostly do not reproduce new plants, the seeds are infertile.
You can find some quality seeds here
