Question by indieisalie: How can I start a vegetable garden?
I’ve always been interested in growing my own pesticide free organic vegetables, but it always seemed like such a tough thing to just pick up and start.

I live in central Florida on near the coast and its typical florida weather here. Could someone point me in the direction of how to start a vegetable garden particularly full of peppers, cucumbers, and lettuce?

  3. Vegetable garden may take practice and your practice may span over several seasons. Do not become discouraged! Even one delicious homegrown tomato may make all of your work worthwhile. Organic gardening is the oldest method of cultivation, it’s good for your family, and it’s less expensive to do! Visit on http://www.agritura.com for various gardening tools.

  4. oh my stars the best I’ve found is Mel Bartholemew’s Square Foot Gardening. Various books free from the library or order on-line from his website or used through Amazon.com

    The procedures in his new book is VERY simple. Take my word from someone who put together 3 box frames and mixed the Mel’s Mix anyone could do it.
