Have you been contemplating the importance of introducing children to gardening? There are countless benefits to introducing and teaching children of all ages about gardening methods, and how to not only grow plants and a garden organically but also how to grow food! Learning to care for a garden allows children to not only grow food for themselves, but also for their families, and even the surrounding community. From learning about the natural life cycle of the garden and plants to the patience, time, and commitment it takes to grow a garden, the benefits that not only children but adults too, can find in a garden, are many. These natural skills, this ageless knowledge, and our historical heirloom seeds, all need to be preserved and savored for our generations to come, now more than ever... Growing a garden of any sort is simply good for the soul!
