Being kind to the environment and trying to cut down on our carbon footprints is something that a lot of us have in the back of our minds.

 

So what can we do to try and help the environment?

 

The obvious answer would be, reduce, reuse, recycle and use solar energy. But why stop there? There are plenty of other ways you can be kind to the environment.

 

Have you eve thought about growing your own food? Not only are you getting fresh organic produce straight from your garden but it works out cheaper too!

 

If you are interested putting together a vegetable garden of your very own I found some tips to get you started if you head to www.greengold.com.au/greengold/CARENOTES/CARENOTES/vegetabl.htm.

 

Otherwise go and visit your local Bunnings or hardware store this weekend, I’m sure they’ll be able to give you some great advice too.
