Successful
vegetable gardens are not accidental. They are the results of planning, constant care, and the will to make
things grow. Among the many things a vegetable garden may offer toward a satisfying experience are
fresh air, exercise, sunshine, knowledge, supplemental income, mental therapy, and fresh food, rich in vitamins and minerals, harvested at the best stage of maturity.
Organic gardening differs from "conventional" gardening mainly in the areas of fertilization and pest control. The organic
gardener prefers to use natural and organic materials and
methods, and avoids using practices and synthetic chemicals that may be detrimental to his health or environment.
The information in this publication should be beneficial to all gardeners regardless of methods of culture used; however, it is primarily intended to aid the organic gardener to employ workable methods acceptable to him and compatible with the philosophy of "organic gardening."
