These facts are taken from the Iowa State University, University Extension 2011 Calendar. Full of monthly helpful gardening tips, hints, and advice, this month's "Good for You" encouragement states the following: "Productive - Watering your second sowing of greens, sitting down to relax after weeding the garden, and enjoying an ear of sweet corn you've grown . . . Gardening can give you a sense of accomplishment. Vegetable and fruit gardens reward you with bountiful produce during the growing season. That feeling can last all year if you preserve some of your bounty by canning, freezing, or drying. Preservation of garden produce allows us to enjoy great-tasting fruits and vegetables during the winter months and helps reduce the grocery bill.
