Produktbeschreibung

DID YOU KNOW..... Non-organic bell peppers have been tested by the USDA and 115 pesticides were detected in total. We have to stop putting these chemicals in our bodies without spending a fortune! How frustrating is it to spend a fortune on fresh fruit and vegetables, only for your carrots to go droopy in a few days and your spinach to taste more slimy than crispy in no time at all? Now what's even more infuriating is that you are paying more and more for these essential products. Have you ever heard of the dirty dozen? The Environmental Working Group (EWG) creates an annual list of produce with the highest levels of pesticides. At the top of the list is our beloved strawberries, closely followed by spinach and kale. It gets worse! Nearly 70% of fresh, non-organic produce sold in the U.S contains potentially harmful pesticides. The USDA detected DCPA on kale, classified as a possible human carcinogen. What we assume is boosting our health could be having a horribly negative impact. The more we rely on commercially bought products, the more harm we are doing to our own health as well as the environment.

Autorenporträt

Jessie was a total city girl, being born and raised in New York City. Although this sounds like a dream for many, she was desperate to escape the "Concrete Jungle" and live a life in the countryside. There was something about the idea of growing her own healthy food that she couldn't ignore, so at 25, she moved to northern NY state.Her big picture desire was to grow her own food year round, but NY winters can be very harsh. It was then that greenhouse gardening became the next logical step. Following many trial and error attempts, Jessie did achieve her year round harvest success!11 years ago, she moved to the American Southwest and began to experiment with an entirely new climate. This time, heat, wind, and limited moisture were the challenges. Being exposed to drastically different climates has only expanded her skillset.Jessie has spent many years mastering her greenhouse & gardening passion. She has reached a stage in her life where she wants to share her experience. Her biggest desire is for others to enjoy the many physical, emotional, financial, and self-sufficient benefits that gardening and greenhousing can bring!
