Publisher's Synopsis
Research shows that eating more vegetables improves health, reduces obesity, and cuts down on the risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes and cancer. Having a garden helps save on grocery bills when economic times are tough. A vegetable garden can be planted in a backyard, in pots on a balcony, or in a community garden. Gardening is easy once you get the hang of it, but beginning gardeners may need some extra attention and support the first time out.
