Face it...we all have it.
Spring fever.
The heat is returning to the sun, the songbirds are returning, the chickweed is growing, and those of us with gardens or containers are getting the itch.
Never grown a vegetable? No time like the present.
You can make it a wonderful anti-fungal spring by growing some of your own food.
Here's a list of some really good vegetables that are fun to grow:
radishes...can be grown most anywhere and the fun part is that they grow pretty quickly
lettuce...get some mesclun seeds and, in a short time, you'll have some beautiful, colorful and tender greens to enjoy
scallions...nothing like some nice, tender green onions to add to your salad!
Getting interested? Here are some good cool weather plants you can plant now (greenhouses are getting them in and they're reasonably priced):
cauliflower--move over, orange juice...cauliflower is packing some great vitamin C
broccoli--fiber, iron, vitamin C...broccoli is a super veggie
kohlrabi--crazy looking, but it tastes like really good, strong broccoli and fun to grow
cabbage--another vegetable that is a powerhouse
So many great tastes, colors, and textures...sure hope you'll get the urge to grow some fresh anti-fungals of your own this season.
Happy gardening!
