🥕 Need a little more motivation to get a vegetable garden going this summer? How about better mental and physical health?
Katherine Alaimo, an associate professor of food science and human nutrition at Michigan State University says
✅ "...when you grow more produce, you eat more produce."
✅ "...gardening also connects people with nature, provides a sense of responsibility and accomplishment and encourages sharing harvests with friends. All of that can contribute to reduced stress, lower blood pressure and higher energy."
Who doesn't need all that?
