Thanksgiving is just around the corner. And we don’t know about you, but we’re already dreaming about what we will eat for Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey, stuffing, pie — the possibilities are limitless! And one great thing about having Thanksgiving in Nashville is the large amount of local produce available to make your dinner plate fantastic. We think it’s about time to bring that festive harvest to your own backyard. Here are a few reasons why you should consider growing your own produce:
Good for the environment
— Growing plants, vegetables and other crops on your property not only enhances the look of your yard, but it is also beneficial for the environment. While you can eat many of the crops for a Thanksgiving feast (or any feast, really), the non-edible plants are great for little Nashvillian critters to gobble up nutrients.
Cost effective and delicious
— What better way to cut the cost of your Thanksgiving feast than growing your own ingredients? Growing your own crops can reduce your spending on groceries all year long, and somehow, eating crops you grew yourself is much more delicious than buying them from the store.
A relaxing hobby
— So many people find enjoyment and relaxation in taking care of a garden. Want to have a prosperous garden or landscape but you’re not sure where to begin? The Parke Company doesn’t just cover tree services. They can help you get set up the right way with any landscaping, flower bed cleaning, mulching and more.
Thanksgiving is a great time of togetherness and being thankful for friends, family and other blessings.
