"How You Can Turn Your Backyard Into Healthy Homegrown Chemical-Free Vegetables 

By Gardening On The Weekends"

Now it's time to retire the lawnmower, plant some seeds, sit back, relax and watch your backyard turn into a living salad.

Every time we go to the supermarket it seems the price of something we like to eat is higher than last time, and now your vegetables only cost you sunlight and water.

Now we are getting news stories about chemicals in the food we eat causing our health to go downhill but you are eating your own homegrown, healthy, chemical-free vegetables.

And another thing, the obesity situation is causing us to eat more because the food tastes so good laden with sugars and other additives that just happen to keep us overweight. You don't have to worry as your vegetables contain natural sugars and no additives. 

So not only is food getting more expensive we are eating far too much of it. Now you will be eating too much of your own homegrown, healthy chemical-free vegetables.

Before we never thought very much about food, but now the situation is starting to change. Now you are growing your own vegetables you don't have to worry so much about where your food comes from.

     If you check the labels, if you can find them, you will find that a lot of food is imported. Even some of the vegetables come a long way before we eat them. Now your vegetables come from as far away as your own backyard

     To keep them fresh they are loaded with chemicals to stop them ripening while your vegetables are ripened naturally by the sun.

     Also to grow these same vegetables they are covered with chemicals to keep the bugs off, but you use ladybugs, praying mantis and hedgehogs and chickens and other things to control bugs. 

     Then to get them to grow, fertilizers are added to the soil and in your backyard you use the natural method of gardening where everything you don't eat is returned back to the garden.

     Most chemicals and fertilizers come from oil or natural gas. And if you listen to the TV and read the newspapers you can get the impression that the world is running out of both oil and natural gas. 

     So anything made from oil or natural gas will go up in price.  And that includes the food you eat as modern agriculture is just about turning oil into food. And don't forget the transport, it takes a lot of oil to move food from the farm to the supermarket.

     Already now with the bio-fuels craze that is sweeping the world, a lot of food is being turned into fuel for your car. So there is less food to eat. Now when you bring in supply and demand what happens? Well the price of food keeps going up because food is going into your gas tank.

     If global warming gets any worse then there will be problems with food. Already good farmland is drying up and there are severe droughts in a number of food producing regions of the world.

     So with global warming and oil getting more expensive the price of food has to go up. And one way to stop it going up is to grow your own vegetables. The future actually looks quite bleak when it comes to food. There have already been food riots in some countries.

     Well, for a start you can grow your own vegetables. Now who am I to tell you what you should do. I'm Peter Legrove, The Weekend Gardener. I spend the week in front of a classroom and on the weekends I'm out the back watching the vegetables grow. Or more likely doing a bit of weeding or planting a few more seeds, so I'll have a constant supply of vegetables most of the year. 

     If you live in suburbia in a house with a lawn, you can do the same. And grow your own healthy, chemical-free vegetables instead of spending money at the supermarket to buy commercially grown vegetables that could contain an arsenal of chemicals you have never heard about. 

     If your yard will grow grass and weeds, it will grow vegetables.

     Actually growing vegetables is not very difficult. Plants only need three things to grow – water, sunlight and warmth, and soil to grow in. 

     If you have a lawn you have soil and most houses have water so the only thing you leave up to nature is sunlight. 

     If you start planting your vegetable garden in spring you'll have sunlight all through summer and beyond. 

     Also they say that nature will find a way and that is so true. All you need to do is put the seed in the soil, water it and nature will do the rest. 

     Now I'm letting you into my little secret of how to grow healthy chemical-free vegetables instead of mowing the lawn. My 157 page book is divided into two parts. Part 1 is about how to turn your yard from grass to food the easy way. And Part 2 is a collection of my gardening tips that will help you out when you need that little bit of extra information. 

So how and where do you start. Well In this little guidebook you will be shown how easy it is to grow vegetables. They just grow by themselves.

How to set up mini gardens to start you off with vegetable gardening. This guide is not about turning your whole lawn into vegetables in one hit. You will learn the slow and easy approach, no digging in your backyard.

It will show you how to start off slowly and over time grow your garden to cover the whole lawn. A sort of practice run. It is up to you to decide how much garden you want. And that depends on how much time you have. 

Setting up your garden is not expensive. You will need to buy seeds or you can save the seeds from some of the vegetables you buy at the supermarket, but it will require your time. 

Give a seed water and sunlight and it will grow by itself, but you need to keep watering it. 

Also everything else in your garden will grow including the grass and weeds, so you need to spend a bit of time keeping your garden under control. The rest is up to the wonders of nature. 

In this little guidebook you will see how easy it is to turn your lawn into food without breaking the bank or your back.
