Have you ever been to a lush old forest and wondered how those majestic trees and thick bushes grow so happily without any help...while your garden threatens to die out within weeks if you don't feed your plants with chemical fertilizers? Well, nature is wise. A forest fertilizes itself with dead leaves and grass and all kinds of organic materials that turn into delightfully nutritious compost. It contains the exact nutrients that plants need for healthy growth - without the weird (and expensive) chemicals that contaminate the soil.

Did you know that you could grow up to 10,000 pounds of food on a small quarter-acre lot? Now pause and think for a moment. You're spending at least 10 percent of your monthly income on food that you can actually grow in your backyard. Highest-quality organic vegetables, flavorful freshly picked herbs and mouth-watering fruit - you can have all of these for free.

Are you constantly torn between the temptation of cheesecakes, brownies and pizza and your wish to lose weight? Did you try several diets but couldn’t stick to them long term? Are you afraid of the evil yo-yo effect after trying a new diet? Your fear is not unwarranted. Studies suggest that 80 percent to 95 percent of people who lose weight regain it again.
