Grow Your Own Garden



 Do you want to start a garden this spring but aren't sure where to begin?  Not to worry it's easy, fun and rewarding!  First thing is to decide on what type of garden you want to have such as a vegetable, fruit or herb garden or maybe a combination.
 Next you might want to ask an adult to drive you to your local store and purchase some of your favorite seeds.  With their assistance in planting you will be amazed to watch the garden grow from seeds and dirt into full plants, and finally dinner for the whole family!
