Gardening

Gardening is a great activity. It improves the environment. It gives us healthy foods to eat. It produces beautiful plants and flowers. Best of all, it gets us out of doors in great weather.

Some people do not like to garden. They consider it work and prefer to be indoors. But the out doors are the most important part of our habitat. By gardening, you nurture plants that are needed by soil, by insects, and small animals.

Gardening gives us healthy foods. Instead of chocolate bars and soda, gardens give us fruits and vegetables. These types of foods are healthier for us.

Beautiful flowers are another benefit of gardening. Some gardeners specialize in one type of flower or another. Everyone likes to see the rainbow of colors in Spring. The flowers can be brought indoors and brighten up our homes as well.

It is better to be out of doors, working in the garden, than stuck inside watching television. So go grab your gardening tools and start your garden.
