More About National Gardening Day
NATIONAL GARDENING DAY
National Gardening Day on April 14th encourages gardeners and would-be gardeners to pick up a shovel, plant some seeds, and kick off a beautiful year of homegrown bounty.
#NationalGardeningDay
Whether you want to grow vegetables, fruit, flowers, houseplants, or anything in between, National Gardening Day celebrates a satisfying pastime that you will enjoy for decades.
ONE HEALTH DAY - November 3
Growing your own food also provides fresh and natural nourishment for your family and saves you time and money at the grocery store.
As many gardeners know, the benefits of gardening come from more than the produce. Spending time in the garden also provides physical activity and an opportunity to join with nature.
The day is a call to action to get out and grow flower or vegetable gardens. No matter how you garden, plant in the ground, in containers, in straw bales or in a square foot gardening box. Just garden!
HOW TO OBSERVE NATIONAL GARDENING DAY
There are many ways that you can celebrate the day, including:
Find the right book, guide or resource for your needs at Cool Springs Press, county extension service, the local bookstore or library.
Look for a community garden in your area.
Organize a seed and perennial plant swap with neighbors and friends.
Join a garden club. There isn't one near? Start one!
Visit your local nursery or garden center—you will be amazed and excited by all the beautiful options
