Get Your Vitamins Directly From the Veg You Grow

As we are in the midst of vegetable growing season, now is as good a time as any to evaluate which important vitamins can be found in our bounty. Vitamin A is found in sweet potato, pumpkin, and carrots. As for vitamin C, look to peppers, tomatoes, and cauliflower. You can get the both lovely vitamins A and C from the leafy veggies, along with the yellow ones. So, if you have turnips, kale, broccoli, spinach or cantaloupes then you are on your way.

If upon review, you find that you are lacking in a healthy supply of any of these, it is time to incorporate some new vegetables into your garden. And for those cold months, you need not go without those valuable nourishing items you grow, instead learn to make chutney, or canned soups. This will not only give you a serving of those vitamins, but remind you of the warm months to come in the garden.
