Detailed guide for beginners who want to collect genuine fruit and vegetables to bring to their kitchens
There are many advantages in growing your food, such as reducing the miles of food it travels and the energy it takes to produce and start making some difficult but necessary decisions to not buy strawberries in December from all over the planet. They cost a fortune and no longer even taste like real strawberries, so why worry. The taste of freshly produced vegetables, and also of berries, will be second to none, as will the sense of accomplishment of seeing the whole process through yourself. There is not much in the world that offers a higher level of satisfaction.
The truth is, you can't always rely on stores to stock up on the things we're all used to eating; due to extreme climate change, crop failures, fuel strikes, fuel prices running across the roof and starting to notice that your government is full of optimistic lies to prevent people from going out on the street in many cases. Maybe, and I say maybe sarcastically, that the economy is not going as well as "they" would like you to believe and keep the money printers set to warp speed, so it won't be long before the spring cabbage commands a wheelbarrow full of money to buy.
