Gardening provides more than healthful food

see whether I had the "tell-tale dirty
knees" of a gardener. My clothes and
knees were clean.
Why was I gardening in my good
clothes, anyway? Because now I
can.
We have had a backyard garden
for many years, but last year, the
weeds won. We went on a short va-
cation and found a thick carpet of
weeds when we returned home.
Then Jake the dachshund sneaked
into our garden over a fence to nab a
tomato.
The fence was designed to ex-
clude rabbits (but, obviously, not
dogs). When he leaped out of the
garden, he injured himself and ended
up on "crate rest" for two months.
Between the weeds and nursing a
sick dog, we gave up on last year's
garden.
This year, weeding is a lot easier
because my garden beds are elevated
3 feet from ground level. My hus-
band built raised beds after combin-
ing several ideas on
YouTube. We can plant, pluck the
offending weeds and harvest without
kneeling or bending. When we are
older, we will appreciate the ease of
gardening in raised beds, too.
Even better, the bumper crop of
bunnies hopping around our neigh-
borhood would ha'ce to pole vault
into our garden to chomp on my
beans and lettuce. I wouldn't put it
past some of the fearless rabbits (or
Jake) to grab a stick and try.
My family is amused by my fre-
quent trips to check our garden beds.
I find gardening to be very relaxing.
Many published studies have shown
numerous health benefits associated
with gardening activities.
Gardens can promote several
healthy behaviors. Home gardens
provide us with an immediate source
of fresh, highly nutritious food. After
tending a garden for weeks or
months, you do not want all this de-
licious, fresh food to go to waste, so
you eat it, share it or preserve it.
When you gather fresh vegeta-
bles and immediately prepare them,
you are getting a flavorful, colorful
source of nutrition. Eating foods
grown close to home means they
will retain most of their nutrients.
Lettuce and radishes are among
the first vegetables we can harvest.
Lettuce and radishes can be prepared
for eating in minutes. Because of do, gardening and yardwork may be
