Skywater Organic Gardening Coaching

When you garden organically, you can feel safer about the food you eat. You all know that the food you are feeding your family is safer and healthier than the questionable stuff you find in the grocery store. You and your family deserve to eat food that will not give you all cancer!

Organic gardening leads to better health in three main ways:

• When you garden organically, you greatly reduce your exposure to pesticides, which have been linked to many severe health problems.

• Organically-grown food is more nutritious than food grown using conventional methods.

• Organic gardeners tend to use “muscle-power” rather than “machine-power” for gardening tasks, thereby burning more calories.

•  Antioxidant levels in organically grown corn were 58.5% higher than in conventionally grown corn.

• Organically grown blackberries had a 50% advantage over their conventional counterparts.
  6. Strawberries grown organically had 19% more antioxidants when grown organically.

Gardening can be especially beneficial for people with special needs or those recovering from illness. Gardening promotes an increased range of motion, develops eye-hand coordination, improves motor skills and increases self esteem
