Why not use World Plant a Vegetable Garden Day as the perfect excuse to begin your vegetable garden? Start small with easy vegetables like tomatoes and cucumbers. Or go big with a raised bed filled with lettuce, carrots, and peppers. Or better yet, just start with growing what you love to eat. You’ll find yourself eating fresh vegetables for all your summer meals and bringing extras to your neighbors. Use a Melnor Soaker Hose or Garden Watering Kit to get water right where you need it and minimize water waste.
