Video - Fun Garden Ideas to Get Kids Gardening

Getting your kids interested in gardening is a big part of creating a sustainable future for our planet. With the health of our society in decline, lifespans (in Western countries) actually growing SHORTER instead of longer, and the trend towards ever-more processed, modified, and artificial foods, it is more important than ever to re-learn the joy and healthiness of growing our own food - and pass this knowledge on to our kids. (Okay, I'll get off my soapbox now!)  :-)

This quick video offers some fun and creative ideas to get your kids interested in gardening by growing a theme garden. (See below video for some other helpful resources.)

Check it out, and get your kids off the couch and out in the garden this summer! You may be surprised how much they enjoy it....
