Family grows 80 percent of their own food

by Anette

Have you been eagerly waiting for the summer to finally arrive, so that you really can begin to spend time in your garden and see everything grow?

Farmer Dave is, together with his wife and their daughters, the proud owner of a garden that supplies them with 80 percent of their food, he says.

In an interesting article on his blog – http://kitchengardeners.org/blogs/farmer-dave/summer-gardening – he describes how he prepares his garden for the summer.

In this interesting article Farmer Dave shows how he and his family grows most of their own food right in their own garden. He shows how he prepares garden beds by sheet composting and by using Green Manure or cover crop.

I personally found his blog post really interesting and useful.

Best,
Anette
