Why you should grow your own!
We’re encouraging our fellow burger lovers to grow their own at home & we thought we’d share some of the fantastic benefits of home-grown food…
Local food is the best & you simply can’t get more local than your own back garden! Freshly picked fruit & vegetables contain the highest possible vitamin content, so growing your own means that you can enjoy food straight from your garden. You’ll also get great health benefits from being active in your garden & it’s a brilliant way to de-stress & relax.
Growing your own is also helps the environment – you can organically grow your own without worrying about pesticides & herbicides because you know exactly what has gone into your food. Growing your own also reduces the travel pollution that would have occurred in the delivery of ingredients to supermarket. Food waste is also reduced when you grow your own as you take more pride & are less likely to let ingredients go off.
You will also save money because growing your own is a much cheaper option in the long run. It’s also a great family activity to teach children the process of how plants are grown.
With all those benefits in mind, we bet you can’t wait to start growing your own! We’d love to see your own homegrown creations – just upload on our Facebook & Twitter pages so we can check them out!
We hope you enjoy growing your own…
