1 . Experts in nutrition (营养) suggest that we should eat at least five different kinds of vegetables and fruit a day. They are very necessary for our health and help our bodies work well. They can help reduce (减少) the risk of getting ill. There are a lot of vegetables and fruit to choose from and they taste delicious. Best of all, you can grow your own!

It’s easy to buy our food from the local supermarket, so why do we go to the trouble of growing our own? Here are several good reasons.

Food that you grow yourself is always fresh. You can pick and eat it at once. When you have tried it, you will agree that vegetables and fruit that are eaten straight from the garden taste better than anything you can buy in a supermarket.

You may want to cut down on your “food miles”— the distance (距离) that a product has travelled before it reaches your kitchen. Many food packages are flown halfway across the earth. That’s not so good for you, or for the planet.

Homegrown food is likely to be healthier. Food producers often use fertilizers (化肥) and pesticides (农药) which can end up in your food. If you grow your own, things are different. You can control what goes on and into the food you eat. You might also choose to grow some traditional vegetables and fruit. These often have more of the vitamins, minerals (矿物质) and protein (蛋白质) that keep you healthy.

If you have a large garden, growing your own is easy. And you can grow your own even if you only have a small backyard or a balcony (阳台). Some food can grow well in pots, including lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes and carrots. You can recycle plastic bottle and cups to grow something. Just make sure there are holes for drainage (排水) and a small plate under them to catch drops of water.

Happy gardening!
