Growing a Greener World

Monticello (5x24)

:

Although organic gardening may be considered a shift in thinking to modern agriculture, it wasn't too long ago that ALL gardening was done without chemical fertilizers and pesticides. However, the connection between soil and plants has not always been easily understood. One forward thinking gardener of the past also happens to have been one of the forefathers of our country - President Thomas Jefferson. He was a great plantsman and used his garden to test agricultural theories that we still apply today.
