Grow Kale in Zone 6
MMM fresh kale greens. Kale is a nutrition superstar and is high in minerals and vitamins and rich in antioxidants. In fact, kale is one of the best survival foods you can grow.
Kale is very productive and very hardy. I often grow it like a green but it's in the brassica family along with cabbage and broccoli.
Vegan Composting and Fertilization
As a vegan, you want a garden full of healthy plants. Healthy plants fight off diseases and pests. And they have more nutrients which help us stay healthy too.
Plant-based compost is easy to make and will benefit your garden. My vegan friends often tell me that established gardeners tell them you can't compost without animal products. And that is simply not true!
