Experts in nutrition(营养) suggest that we should eat at least five different kinds of vegetables and fruit a day. There are a lot of vegetables and fruit to choose from and they taste delicious.
Why do we go to the trouble of growing on our own? Here are several good reasons.
Food that you grow yourself is always fresh. When you have tried it, you will agree that vegetables and fruit that are eaten straight from the garden taste better than anything you can buy in a supermarket.
Food producers often use fertilizers(化肥)and pesticides(农药)which can end up in your food. If you grow your own, things are different. You might also choose to grow some traditional vegetables and fruit. These often have more vitamins, minerals(矿物质) and protein(蛋白质)that keep you healthy.
If you have a large garden, growing your own is easy. And you can grow your own even if you only have a small backyard or a balcony(阳台) . Some food can grow well in pots including lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes and carrots. Just make sure there are holes for drainage (排水) and a small plate under them to catch drops of water.
Happy gardening!
