Well, dear readers, it’s about that time of year again… as we head into spring and we all start getting a little garden fever I thought it would be fun to delve into our archives to revisit some of our great posts from the past to get you inspired for this year’s season.
I plan to bring you all along with me this year as I attempt a bit of gardening, and I look forward to hearing what you’re growing as well.
Gardening 101
It’s hard to believe Simple Organic has already been around for two years! When we started out, editor Katie Fox spearheaded a great series on the basics of gardening. Here are my favorite posts from the series.
- Starting a Garden with Repurposed Materials
- 3 Options for Creating New Vegetable Gardens
- 5 Gardening Basics for Beginners
- Companion Planting
More Resources
Since those early days, we’ve had more helpful posts on gardening. Here’s some more reading material to inspire you as you brave those last weeks of winter.
- Heirloom Seeds
- Planting and Growing Strawberries
- The Most Natural Kind of Pest Control
- Community Gardens
Don’t forget about composting!
If you’re new to composting or need a refresher, be sure to (re-)visit our Compost Q & A series where I interviewed a master composter with reader questions, and gave an overview of some composting options.
So now the questions is, what are your gardening plans for this year? Have you started yet?
