Are you someone considering starting your vegetable gardening journey? I don’t know what it is, but it feels like as soon as you become a homeowner, the first thing you want to do is create a vegetable garden. It is one of the best ways to save money, especially with groceries getting more expensive. I grow herbs indoors throughout the year and try starting seeds as soon as possible for our growing zone. However, starting our garden wasn’t easy, especially since I came from a family who knew almost nothing about growing. My mom killed almost any plant she touched, so I had to learn through trial and error and many gardening books.
Nowadays, gardening is much easier to start than a decade ago. There are so many fantastic books out there, perfect for busy gardeners who have no clue where to start. Recently, I reviewed a brand new vegetable gardening book that seemed perfect for novice gardeners – Vegetable Gardening Made Easy: Simple Tips & Tricks to Grow Your Best Garden Ever by Resh Gala. Once my complimentary book arrived, I couldn’t wait to share it with everyone!
