Gardens in the south are very important. Many people have their own personal gardens to supply themselves with fresh vegetables. Though these gardens were once necessary, it is used today more as a hobby or to save some money. This method for getting produce is one that I personally am fond of. To me, there’s nothing better than a fresh carrot handpicked from our garden. Even those who have a plentiful amount of money may still choose to have a garden for various reasons including it being relaxing, a fun hobby, and just having something to pass the time. According to the University of Georgia, cultivation is key to having a successful vegetable garden. This means one must hoe in order to control weeds and grasses (University of Georgia, 2012). If this process is not preformed, crops will not be able to grow to their full potential.
