Backyard FARMacy
Growing plants for
NUTRITION & MEDICINE

Picture
     It's amazing what one can grow in their backyard or on a patio. Small spaces can grow a variety of plants that can be used for food, medicine, or just to look pretty.
     Careful planning and design is the key, as there are many parts. Every garden needs a compost pile or two. Then there are composting worms, garden beds, and animals if you like.

Got the Winter Blues?

     Chase away the blues with a hot cup of peppermint or chamomile tea. Other good choices are lavender, lemon balm, green, or passionflower tea. Add a high percentage cocoa chocolate bar on the side for even more glee.
