Having your own garden not only serves as a source of food for the family, but can also provide a form of exercise.

While enjoying yourself in the garden, you are also working all the major muscle groups: legs, buttocks, arms, shoulders, neck, back, and abdomen. Gardening tasks that use these muscles build strength and burn calories.

Even the less strenuous forms of garden upkeep—weeding, trimming, and raking—can burn off about 300 calories an hour.

Aside from burning calories, garden activity increases self-esteem, pride, confidence, personal satisfaction, and efficacy according to gardeners.

Limited space for planting? No problem!

By practicing square-foot gardening, you can harvest generously even from a small planting area, making it ideal for individuals with limited space.

Aside from giving you high yields, it is also easy to set up, requires minimal regular maintenance.

To start, create a small garden bed (4 feet by 4 feet or 4 feet by 8 feet are common sizes) and divide it into a grid of 1-foot squares, which you manage individually. Seeds or seedlings of each kind of vegetable are planted in one or more squares, at a density based on plant size. Since there are no paths, there is no wasted space, and the soil in the bed stays loose because you never step on it.

Are you having problems with soil fertility? Try mulching in your home gardens!

Mulches are loose coverings or sheets of material placed on the surface of cultivated soil. They can be applied to bare soil or to cover the surface of compost in containers. You can also spread them around new plantings or established beds and specimen plants.

Generally, mulching is used to protect soil from erosion by helping retain soil moisture, suppressing weeds, improving soil texture, and encouraging beneficial soil organisms. It likewise gives your garden a neat, tidy appearance and can reduce the amount of time spent on tasks such as watering and weeding.

Among the best materials are leaf mold, garden compost, wood chippings, green manure, and straw.
