What is organic gardening? Can kids be taught it?
Organic gardening is gardening without using any chemically created fertilizers, weed killers, or pesticides. In most gardens, store bought fertilizers that are crammed with chemicals are used to treat the soil the vegetables are planted in. Later, more store bought pesticides and weed killers are sprayed among the vegetables while they are growing to kill the insects and weeds that are part of any garden. Sure, kids can be taught and I am sure it would be a lot of fun for them! You can even grow things in pots and on your balcony if space is limited.
