Also a little better for you if you're prone to inflammation. I have a client who's on TV and gives classes about eating natural, local, etc. I brought her stuff from the garden last year and she taught me about what I was growing.

Oh! this is good to know! We don't often lose the plants, but we like the garlic, mint, and peas in the garden. I'll plant them closer to each other from now on.
Re: space, I uprooted anything in the front yard that wasn't a food plant, other than the cedar and the lilac. Now the beds in the front yard are a garden. Most of the garden plants flower anyway.
