Backyard Food Gardens - Canadians are getting their hands dirty! With physical distancing measures in effect, why not grow produce and herbs from the comfort of your own homes and donate the extra homegrown crops to local food banks and community organizations. Growing vegetables from plants instead of seeds are suggested for beginners.... For the first time-gardener, it’s best to pick plants that are easiest to grow. Vegetables like radishes, herbs, lettuce, tomatoes, kale, swiss chard and squash. Gardening is fun for the entire family!!
