Home on the Farm

We have grown vegetables and fruit in our yard ever since we've had a yard where we could plant something. Now it seems that the idea of growing your own vegetables is becoming more popular again. I think it's great. Nothing beats fresh vegetables and fruit. I just came across a site sponsored by Kraft: Home Farming which offers a lot of basic information to help people get started with their home farm. They also have a map which shows locations of home farms. IMHO when the big corporations start to get behind something then the idea has taken hold at least enough for it to trickle down to ( or is it up to) them.
Now if the native plant movement continues to grow I'll be cheering because maybe it will be easier to find native plants.
