Spring Has Arrived!

With the days growing longer and the sun starting to shine brighter, we are all definately feeling the amazing benefits of warmer weather and brighter moods. Spring is a time of renewal and growth. Just look around and you will find flowers in bloom, leaves continuing to bud and people coming out of their houses to enjoy the weather and the neighborhood.

Use this Spring to connect with yourself, your neighbors and your own backyard. Why not think about starting your own garden even if it's in a window box or small planters. If you're like me, you might try your hand at a bigger garden...even if you don't have a green thumb. I did this last year and even with the weeds and some underutilized space, I still had fresh veggies and delicious carrots and peas!

Give it a try and let me know what you decide to plant. I guarantee that you will feel fabulous once you begin to eat the foods you grow.
Enjoy!
