Even if you did not get a spring garden planted, there is still time, late summer, to plant vegetables and harvest them before the first frost.
A late summer garden means you can harvest fresh produce well into autumn and sometimes even into winter.
One of the biggest trends in gardening today is growing your own food, no matter what the size of your garden space.
Growing your own vegetables ensures they are fresh, have not been sprayed with chemicals, and you save on grocery bills.
It is easy to grow vegetables from seed. All you need to ensure is that you sow at the correct time of year, and give the seeds a good start with composted soil, plenty of sunshine, and access to water.
