Growing Your Own Food

Many of you may already have a garden. Some of you may live where you have no place for a garden. How do I grow vegetables when I don't have any place to put them. One of the things you can do is to plant vegetables in a flower box. My husband has spinach, swiss chard, and lettuce in flower boxes and tomatoes in larger flower pots.

It takes a lot less space and if you have a patio, lanai, or can attached the box on the outside of a window, you can grow at least some of your own vegetables. The great thing about veges like lettuce, is that the more you cut and use, the more it grows. Same is true with spinach and swiss chard.
