Why Start Your Garden from Seeds?

April 18, 2011

“The Vegetable Garden Doctor” is a series of web videos that will help you become a successful first-time gardener and a better experienced gardener, too. Episode three deals with starting garden plants from seed indoors in the early spring so that they are ready for transplanting into the garden come planting time.

As Guy says, “Never underestimate the importance and value of participating in a stress reliever such as gardening. It never fails to relieve much of the stress I feel from the surgery department at the hospital. Gardening requires me to live in garden time, in the present tense and in the moment. We all could use a lesson in slowing down. Studies have revealed just viewing a garden or nature has healthy psychological benefits.”
