Is Your Own Garden Poisoning You?

Nov. 16, 2009 - PRLog -- Scott Castle believes that most fertilizing products contain a wide variety of chemicals that once put on your garden, will not only have the possibility of being in those fresh vegetables you will be placing on your family's kitchen table, but once in the soil, can be there for years and once they reach the water table, who knows where these chemicals will end up.

He feels that starting your own compost pile for your backyard garden will allow you to avoid having to have any contact with potentially harmful chemical fertilizers.

Another of his beliefs is that almost all store bought food has had more than it's share of chemicals from those to make it grow bigger and faster, to those that kept away harmful pests, to even some foods getting special chemicals to trigger a change in color

Scott says: "When one of the main points of having your own is that your backyard garden will produce better, fresher vegetables without the worry and fear of introducing chemicals into the ground, which in turn can go into the vegetables, which in turn can go into you!"

Scott continues: "A garden is ideally all about having fun and forgetting all your problems. But there are also a fair number who actually come to depend on their garden as their main vegetable source for at least a few months of each year. To blindly just grab anything of a store shelf and throw it your garden, be it a pesticide or some type of fertilizer, just doesn't make a lot of sense."
