    Ive finished all of my challenges, and im glad that I now have an herb garden. I have continued to eat mostly organic foods, as well as recycling everyday.

    Food Choose Organic Ingredients
    Can organic farming feed the world? Which side of the argument do you fall on? Why?

    I don't think organic farming can feed the world, but it may be able to in certain circumstances. Right now, organic food is more expensive than other foods. If everyone was expected to buy organic food without any other options, some people couldn't afford it. Also, if we grew lots of organic food, lots of our crop wouldn't grow, from the lack of pesticides and fertilizers. I wish that it could be a reality, but it doesn't seem realistic for consumers and producers

      Great answer, Sydney! It is true that organic food is too expensive for many...Growing your own fruits and vegetables in your backyard is a way to have organic and not be costly.

    Food Plant an Herb Garden
    Consider the ways you can garden: a plot of land? a patio container? hanging basket? windowsill gardens? What would work best for your living situation and lifestyle?

    For my living situation, and my need for little herbs everyday,  I used a windowsill garden. This gave me easy access to the Blants, and I was more inclined to water them everyday.
