How "green" is your garden? You may be able to make it even greener with organic gardening methods.

Organic gardening is being embraced by a new generation of gardeners who are concerned about the environment and their personal health.

The gardener who commits to organic gardening does not simply boycott artificial chemical fertilizers and pesticides. He or she uses techniques that build healthy soil. Healthy soil, not chemicals, becomes the engine of plant growth. Good harvests, along with plants that resist disease and pests, are the byproducts of building healthy soil.

A gardener can adopt simple organic gardening techniques such as using Scotts Organic Choice Lawn Food or purchasing a vegetable from the Earth Friendly Naturals line made of biodegradable pots. These products and other organic and natural fertilizers are available at The Home Depot.

Buying plants in biodegradable pots is one easy way that organic gardeners can make earth-friendly choices.
