I just start doing some ''green gardening '', little things such as buy recycled products ,grow my own food, add a rain barrel...
All these acts inexpensive and effortless but make me happy.
I tried to grow my own veg but I failed miserably lol!
We have a small holding, which really is just a fancy name for a really big allotment, keeps you fit and gives you free pesticide free food.
Vic loves growing things!!so far he has grown carrots,spring onions,garlic,chillies,brussel sprouts and lettuce.He has done really well (and he sells them to our family for a few dollars) lol..
Green gardening is really fun, you'll surely see your hard work in this and be happy with it, especially when you'll take it seriously.
